NuxtLabs is joining Vercel

From the start, our mission at NuxtLabs has been to create the best possible developer experience for building fast, beautiful applications. We built Nuxt as an open source framework under the MIT license because we believed that great tools should be accessible, transparent, and community-driven.

We’ve spent years pouring our time, energy, and resources into Nuxt. And through that, we’ve built not just a product, but also a community. One I’m proud of every single day.

But sustaining open source at this level is hard. With Vercel’s support, we no longer have to split our focus between maintaining Nuxt and funding its future. Now, we can go all in on what we love: building in the open.

Vercel has a strong history of supporting open source projects and creators: Next.js, Turborepo, Svelte, shadcn, AI SDK, and more. They understand what it means to invest in the web as a shared platform. We’re joining a company that shares our values and is helping us go further without compromising on what makes Nuxt special.

Our open source team is coming along, and we’ll continue working on Nuxt and Nitro with the same focus and care. The project stays MIT-licensed. The roadmap stays public. The community stays at the center.

With this, we’re making some changes to how we handle sponsorships. All sponsorship funding will be moved to Open Collective for full transparency and to ensure it goes directly to Nuxt core and community contributors.

What does this mean for you?

Expect to see more open source from us, in the coming months, we will:

• Release Nuxt UI v4 with all Nuxt UI Pro components available for free to everyone, as well as our Figma Kit.
• Open source a self-hostable version of Nuxt Studio, designed to integrate directly with your Nuxt Content site as an admin to edit your website.
• Make NuxtHub agnostic to support other providers, integrating with Vercel’s Marketplace offerings like Postgres and Redis will become seamless.

Looking ahead, AI will be a new area of focus for us. We’re exploring how to bring AI into the Nuxt developer experience. Helping you ship ideas faster. We’re also working closely with Vercel’s AI teams, including v0, and continuing to experiment with local tooling like MCP.

Thank you to everyone who’s supported Nuxt along the way. Every contribution, bug report, pull request, and kind word has brought us here. If you have questions or want to join the conversation, Daniel Roe has written about the future of Nuxt on GitHub.

We’re still open. Still shipping. And now together with Vercel, we’re just getting started.
