Document in Readme or elsewhere what version of Vue Nuxt is using
What problem does this feature solve?
Thanks for reviewing this feature request! As Vue is getting ready for 3.0 release, it's going to be more and more common that people really need to know the which version of Vue they're using. This came up for me recently because I was unsure of which slot syntax I was able to use (no big deal to test), but good to be more explicit for userland. Thanks!
What does the proposed changes look like?
Either document which version of Vue is being used in the Readme, or as some field generated by package.json. Those are the two places I would check first. I can find it in yarn.lock but I have to walk through 102 instances of "vue" in the file to find it.
Good point Sarah, thanks for addressing it 👍 We will document it properly.
Usually, the latest Vue version is required when installing a fresh Nuxt project. In some rare cases, like a buggy release, we have to pin the Vue version (or any faulty dep in such a case) to the latest "working" version until the bug is fixed.
The current Vue version range expression that Nuxt uses can be found here: https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt.js/blob/dev/packages/vue-app/package.json#L17
Please check: https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt.js/wiki/Dependencies
The md is generated by a script, will push a pr tomorrow after I cleaned it up to make sure it can be used on any monorepo. The wiki page should be updated once a new dependency is added. See here for the implementation of a github action which could be used for that (but probably easier to implement it just as a release step).
This would be helpful - also some documentation on how to use a different vue version.
Not mentioned anywhere on the main site, kind of frustrating trying to find it, without looking in the package.json.
Sorry it has taken so long! This should be currently visible in the package description of https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt. vue is also now directly listed as a dependency of the nuxt package.
We still need to merge 2.x and 3.x documentation -> https://nuxt.com, which is planned shortly, but I think we can close this issue for now.
