What is the difference between
nuxt build vs
nuxt generate vs
nuxt build --spa I am trying to compile three different variations:
1. regular nuxt with ssr 2. prerendered spa 3. spa without prerendering I am struggling to find the appropriate commands for it

nuxt generate - Build the application (if needed), generate every route as a HTML file and statically export to dist/ directory (used for static hosting). nuxt start - serve the dist/ directory like your static hosting would do (Netlify, Vercel, Surge, etc), great for testing before deploying.
When combined with headless platform such as CrafterCMS, Nuxt can provide a framework to build highly-performant web applications and SPAs. This article is an introductory review of NuxtJS, a powerful framework on top of Vue for building modern web applications.
As shown in the docs, the above commands correspond to:
nuxt build: Build your application with webpack and minify the JS & CSS (for production).nuxt generate: Build the application and generate every route as a HTML file (used for static hosting).
The --spa flag doesn't seem to be covered in the docs themselves, however the generator help outlines, without further explanation:
Options
--spaLaunch in SPA mode
Given this information, it would seem the following commands should cover your needs, however I haven't tested them myself at the moment:
nuxt build nuxt generate nuxt build --spa Take all of this with a grain of salt, however, as the Nuxt team is notorious for having out-of-date documentation.
