Difference between <v-no-ssr> and <ClientOnly>
I was noticing that with v-no-ssr in the app.vue file of a project, Vuetify is not loading correctly, while with ClientOnly from Nuxt, it does. Does anyone have an idea why?

Hi @joshuadima. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
The
<v-no-ssr>
and <ClientOnly>
components serve similar purposes, but they are from different frameworks and have some key differences:
1. Origin:
- <v-no-ssr>
is a Vue.js component, typically used in Vue applications.
- <ClientOnly>
is a Nuxt-specific component, designed for use in Nuxt applications.
2. Functionality:
- Both components are used to render content only on the client-side, preventing server-side rendering for the wrapped content.
3. Nuxt Integration:
- <ClientOnly>
is fully integrated with Nuxt and is the recommended way to handle client-side-only rendering in Nuxt applications.
- <v-no-ssr>
may not work as expected in a Nuxt environment, which could explain why Vuetify wasn't loading correctly in your case.
4. Tree-shaking:
- Nuxt's <ClientOnly>
component has additional optimizations. According to the Nuxt documentation, the content of the default slot will be tree-shaken out of the server build, potentially improving performance.
5. Fallback Content:
- <ClientOnly>
provides more flexible options for fallback content, including a fallback
prop and a #fallback
slot for server-side rendering.
Given that you're working with a Nuxt project, it's recommended to use <ClientOnly>
instead of <v-no-ssr>
. This ensures better compatibility with Nuxt's rendering system and takes advantage of Nuxt-specific optimizations.
Here's an example of how to use <ClientOnly>
in a Nuxt application:
This approach should resolve the issue with Vuetify not loading correctly when using <v-no-ssr>
.
For more information on <ClientOnly>
and its usage in Nuxt, you can refer to the Nuxt documentation on ClientOnly.
