Self-Hosting First & Cloud-Agnostic Future

Following the acquisition of NuxtLabs, we are evolving NuxtHub to become a truly multi-cloud platform. This transition requires us to move away from features tightly coupled to a single cloud provider and adopt a more flexible, cloud-agnostic approach.

What's Changing

NuxtHub Admin Sunset

NuxtHub Admin will be sunset on December 31st, 2025. This platform was designed specifically for Cloudflare deployments, which conflicts with our multi-cloud vision. We are now recommending all projects to adopt self-hosting practices.

Enhanced Self-Hosting Support

To ensure a smooth transition, we've significantly improved the self-hosting experience with direct Cloudflare API integration. You can now use more features without relying on NuxtHub Admin:

Simplified Remote Storage Setup

• New hub.projectUrl configuration option for cleaner setup
• Environment-based project URL selection (production/preview)
• Direct project-to-project authentication via NUXT_HUB_PROJECT_SECRET_KEY
• No more CLI linking required for remote storage access

Direct Cloudflare API Support

New environment variables enable direct API access for self-hosted projects:

• NUXT_HUB_CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID - Your Cloudflare account ID
• NUXT_HUB_CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN - API token for service access
• NUXT_HUB_CLOUDFLARE_BUCKET_ID - For R2 blob operations
• NUXT_HUB_CLOUDFLARE_CACHE_NAMESPACE_ID - For KV cache operations

These credentials allow you to:

• Run AI and AutoRAG models during local development
• Perform cache bulk deletion operations with the Nuxt DevTools
• Generate presigned URLs for blob uploads at runtime

Cloud-Specific Features Deprecated

As part of our multi-cloud strategy, we are deprecating features that are specific to Cloudflare:

• AI & AutoRAG - Use AI SDK with the Workers AI Provider instead, or access process.env.AI directly
• Browser (Puppeteer) - Cloudflare-specific browser automation
• Vectorize - Cloudflare's vector database
• Additional Bindings - Direct Cloudflare Workers bindings

These features are now marked as deprecated in the documentation and will be removed in a future major version to maintain framework neutrality.

Migration Guide

For Current NuxtHub Admin Users

1. Switch to self-hosting by following the updated remote storage documentation
2. Set up direct authentication using NUXT_HUB_PROJECT_SECRET_KEY
3. Configure Cloudflare credentials if using AI, AutoRAG, or advanced blob/cache features

For Self-Hosted Projects

Update your environment configuration to use the new Cloudflare API credentials:

# Required for remote storage
NUXT_HUB_PROJECT_SECRET_KEY=<your-secret-key>

# Optional: for direct Cloudflare API features (AI, AutoRAG, etc.)
NUXT_HUB_CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID=<your-account-id>
NUXT_HUB_CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=<your-api-token>
NUXT_HUB_CLOUDFLARE_BUCKET_ID=<your-bucket-id>
NUXT_HUB_CLOUDFLARE_CACHE_NAMESPACE_ID=<your-namespace-id>
