#Should I upgrade to Nuxt3 and how?

I wonder if I can safely upgrade my project to Nuxt3. I would like to change from Vuex to Pinia along the upgrade. (Or is it better to change to Pinia beforehand?) There are some other things that must keep working:
nuxtjs/auth-next
nuxtjs/axios
nuxtjs/i18n
nuxtjs/vuetify
Also I saw people talking about starting a new Nuxt3 project instead. The project is in development for over a year now and there are 425 components and 40 pages. I'm afraid that starting over new might be more work than upgrading.

Are you migrating from vue 2? If yes, the migration can be a lot of work tbh, if vue 3, then I believe should not take a lot of time.

Nuxt hasnt made an official auth module yet - you can try https://github.com/sidebase/nuxt-auth.

nuxtjs/axios can be replaced with the $fetch api I guess.

i18n module for nuxt 3 is available.

Vuetify I believe can be migrated without too much of work.

Ok, so the way to go would be either start a new Nuxt3 project with the above mentioned modules and then copy paste most of the code from the current state or

  1. Vue2 -> Vue3 via migration build
  2. Vuex -> Pinia
  3. Nuxt2 -> Nuxt3 with the changes above

Right?

Migrating from Nuxt 2 to Nuxt 3

My personal website was built many years ago and had collected quite a large amount of code as I used my site to play around and experiment new features of Nuxt. It took me ages to finally decide to migrate cause lets face it, we all hate migrations. But I finally did it and I'm so glad I did. I'm going to share with you the steps I took to migr...
