Nuxt 4 + Feathers v5

A full-stack foundation to expose Feathers services inside Nitro or consume an existing remote Feathers API.

Two controlled modes

Embedded for backend-first monorepos, remote for Nuxt applications connected to an external Feathers backend.

CLI-first

Initialization, services, auth, remote services, middleware, MongoDB and templates are generated in a deterministic way.

Optional Zod-first

Use Zod schemas, JSON Schema or no schema depending on the maturity and criticality of each service.

Auth and SSO

Local/JWT auth, client runtime, Pinia stores, Keycloak SSO and LDAP/AD bridge compatibility for remote architectures.

MongoDB and admin tooling

Embedded MongoDB setup, management routes, console/builder, DevTools and diagnostics for faster development.

Production-ready

Configuration guides, runtimeConfig, release checks, secret management, transports and deployment guidance.

Clear runtime API

Composables, Feathers client, auth runtime, typed services and documented events for Nuxt applications.

Developer documentation

Guides, options reference, complete CLI reference, events/hooks, best practices and troubleshooting.

Minimal example ​

bash
bunx nuxi@latest init my-nfz-app
cd my-nfz-app
bun install
bun add nuxt-feathers-zod
bunx nuxt-feathers-zod init embedded --force
bunx nuxt-feathers-zod add service messages --adapter memory --schema zod
bun dev

Positioning ​

nuxt-feathers-zod is not only a client SDK. It is a Nuxt 4 module for structuring a Feathers backend, generating repetitive artifacts, exposing REST/Socket.IO transports and keeping configuration aligned with source code.

The recommended path is straightforward: initialize through the CLI, generate services, enable Zod for durable contracts, centralize client access and protect all administration surfaces.

Production path ​

Before publishing or deploying, run the project checks:

bash
bun install
bun run docs:build
bun run typecheck
bun run build
bun run test

The critical points are covered in the production checklist: secrets, transports, CORS, authentication, database configuration, service generation and documentation validation.
