Nuxt vs Laravel

Traditionally I have used Laravel for both front and back end, with vue sprinkled in for interactive elements.

I'm now about to embark on a new project and was wondering if I should use Nuxt for front end and Laravel for back end.

I understand the potential SEO improvements of an SSR page, but would there be any other reason to go down the Nuxt route?

My site is basically a shopping site with an infinite scroll set of products, that you can click through to and buy.

Thank you

@panthro I’d stick to a “traditional” server-side rendered approach if you’re building a shopping site. You can use things like Vue to progressively add things like infinite scrolling (even though I personally hate that “feature”) and fall back to standard pagination if needs be.

Thanks @martinbean for the reply, is there any reason to stick with the "traditional" approach?
