Hi @nowak. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
Based on the knowledge sources provided, there isn't specific information about this exact error message in the context of Nuxt UI v3. However, I can provide some general insights related to ESM (ECMAScript Modules) and CommonJS issues in Nuxt, which might be relevant to your situation.
The error you're seeing is related to the mixing of CommonJS and ES Modules, which is a known issue in the Node.js ecosystem as it transitions to full ESM support. In Nuxt 3, there's a push towards using native ES modules, but some dependencies might still be using CommonJS.
Here are a few points to consider:
1. This is an experimental warning, not a critical error. It's indicating that a CommonJS module is trying to load an ES Module using
require(), which is not the standard way to import ES Modules.
2. Nuxt 3 has improved ESM support compared to earlier versions. As mentioned in the Nuxt 2 vs Nuxt 3+ comparison (https://nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/upgrade#nuxt-2-vs-nuxt-3), Nuxt 3+ has full ESM support.
3. There are known issues with ESM compatibility in the Nuxt ecosystem. The Nuxt team is aware of these and is working on resolving them. You can see discussions about similar issues in the Nuxt GitHub repository (https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt/issues/20576).
4. In many cases, these warnings don't prevent the application from running correctly. However, they might indicate potential issues that could arise in the future or in certain edge cases.
Given this context, you might be able to safely ignore this warning for now, especially if your application is running without other issues. However, it's worth keeping an eye on updates to Nuxt UI and related packages, as these kinds of compatibility issues are likely to be addressed in future releases.
If you want to try to resolve the issue, you could:
1. Check if there are any updates available for Nuxt UI or other dependencies.
2. Consider using the --experimental-vm-modules flag when running Node.js to enable better ESM support.
3. If the issue persists and causes problems, you might want to report it to the Nuxt UI repository for further assistance.
Remember, as Nuxt and its ecosystem continue to evolve, these kinds of warnings may be resolved in future updates.

I just realised that
npx nuxi init -t ui <app> does not install Nuxt UI v3, I willl try to install it with v3 first.Solution
npx nuxi init -t ui3 <app> did it. No errors here
