Send email from Nuxt

Nuxt server routes and Nitro handlers are the send points. Most provider SDKs work without modification.

Nitro deploys across Node, Cloudflare, Vercel, and Netlify. SDK runtime compatibility carries over from the underlying target.

patterns

Send patterns

  • Nitro server routes for transactional sends.
  • Nuxt useRuntimeConfig for API key injection.
  • Vue email-rendering libraries or framework-agnostic React Email rendered server-side.
pitfalls

Common mistakes

  • Calling send from a Vue component leaks credentials.
  • Nitro preset mismatch between dev and prod can hide runtime incompatibility.
