Best A/B Testing Tool for Nuxt

December 1, 2025
8 min read

Nuxt is the intuitive Vue framework for building modern web apps. But A/B testing in Nuxt requires understanding SSR, hydration, and Vue's reactivity system. ExperimentHQ handles all of this, making it the #1 A/B testing tool for Nuxt.

The A/B Testing Challenge in Nuxt

Traditional A/B testing tools weren't built for Vue frameworks. They cause problems:

⚠️ Flicker Issues

Users see the original before the variant loads

⚠️ Hydration Mismatches

Server and client render different content

⚠️ SEO Impact

Client-side changes can hurt search rankings

⚠️ Complex Setup

Most tools require SDK integration and plugins

ExperimentHQ solves all of these. Our script loads early and applies changes before Vue hydrates, eliminating flicker and hydration issues.

Why ExperimentHQ is Perfect for Nuxt

Zero Flicker

Tests apply before Vue hydrates. No flash of original content.

SSR & SSG Ready

Works perfectly with Nuxt's universal rendering and static generation.

Real-Time Analytics

Watch conversions update live. Statistical significance calculated automatically.

Nuxt 3 Native

Built for Nuxt 3 with full support for the Composition API.

Install in 2 Minutes

Add the ExperimentHQ snippet to your nuxt.config.ts:

nuxt.config.ts

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  app: {
    head: {
      script: [
        { 
          src: 'https://cdn.experimenthq.io/snippet.min.js', 
          async: true, 
          'data-site': 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY' 
        }
      ]
