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:

<template>
  <div>
    <ClientOnly>
      <!-- Vuetify component that should only render on client-side -->
      <v-component></v-component>
    </ClientOnly>
  </div>
</template>

<template>
  <div>
    <ClientOnly>
      <!-- Vuetify component that should only render on client-side -->
      <v-component></v-component>
    </ClientOnly>
  </div>
</template>

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. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
