Tours Nuxt Full Static is a demo travel blog template built on the Nuxt.js framework that demonstrates full static site generation using @nuxt/content for content and @nuxtjs/colour-mode for theme switching.
What is Tours Nuxt Full Static?
Tours Nuxt Full Static is a Nuxt.js project that serves as a demo travel blog. It takes Markdown-based content parsed by @nuxt/content and outputs a completely static website through Nuxt's yarn run generate command. The project runs on Nuxt.js, a Vue.js framework, and the repository is tagged with blog, jamstack, and travel-blog topics. No external author is credited; the README simply calls it "My hunky-dory Nuxt.js project".

Who is it for?
- Nuxt.js developers — A compact sample for learning how static generation works with @nuxt/content and @nuxtjs/colour-mode.
- Travel bloggers — A ready-made blog layout with a travel theme, so they can drop in their own Markdown posts and generate a static site.
- Jamstack adopters — A small example of a Nuxt static site that can be deployed to services like Netlify or Vercel.
What can you do with Tours Nuxt Full Static?
- Launch a travel blog: Generate the static site and deploy the output folder to any static host to produce a working blog.

- Experiment with theming: Use @nuxtjs/colour-mode to switch between dark and light appearances and observe how the module integrates state.
How does Tours Nuxt Full Static work?
The project follows a standard Nuxt.js workflow: yarn install installs dependencies, yarn run dev starts a hot-reloading development server at localhost:3000, and yarn run build compiles a production bundle. For a static site, yarn run generate creates a folder of static files, and yarn start launches the built project locally. The README points to the Nuxt.js docs at nuxtjs.org for further explanation.
FAQ
How do I install the dependencies?
Run yarn install in the project root. This installs Nuxt.js, @nuxt/content, @nuxtjs/colour-mode, and any other packages listed in package.json.
How do I start the development server?
Run yarn run dev. The site will be served at localhost:3000 with hot reload, so edits to components or Markdown content appear immediately without restarting.
How do I build a production version?
Use yarn run build to generate a production bundle, then yarn start to run it. For a static site, yarn run generate outputs a static folder that can be hosted anywhere.
Does this project include a server?
No, the static generation build produces pure static files, so the final site does not require a Node.js server at runtime. The yarn start command is only for local preview of the built output.
