Nue is a standards-first web development framework and toolkit (Nuekit) for building fast websites, blogs, SPAs, and full-stack apps with minimal configuration. It emphasizes HTML-first UI assembly, Markdown-based content (Nuemark), and a tiny ~1MB ecosystem running on Bun.

Use cases

• build a fast static website or blog from markdown
• create a single-page application without heavy tooling
• build a full-stack site with marketing pages, docs, and auth
• generate RSS feeds and sitemaps for a content site
• develop websites with hot reloading and instant dev server startup
• deploy a site to Cloudflare with minimal setup

When to choose

• you want a minimal, standards-based alternative to heavy frameworks like Next.js or Astro
• you prefer HTML-first, content-first development with Markdown
• you value tiny toolchain size and extremely fast dev server startup
• you want simple static site generation plus optional SPA/full-stack capabilities

When to avoid

• you need a mature ecosystem with extensive plugins and community support
• your project depends on Node.js rather than Bun
• you need backwards compatibility with Nue 1.x projects
• you require battle-tested production features like multi-site development, which is still on the roadmap
