What Vue Router history mode actually needs

Clean URLs are worth keeping

Hash routes work everywhere, but they look dated and they are awkward for sharing and indexing.

History mode gives you clean paths like /about, but the host needs a fallback strategy for routes that do not map to a real file.

How DeployPages handles history mode

When a request does not match a real static asset, DeployPages serves the root index.html and lets Vue Router resolve the final view client-side.

  • Missing nested routes do not hard-fail immediately.
  • The root document is returned as the fallback response.
  • Vue mounts, reads the current URL, and renders the correct route.

Vue deployment workflow

01

Build static assets

Run your production build in Vite, Vue CLI, or Nuxt static mode so the app is emitted as plain files.

02

Find the output folder

Most Vue projects output to dist. Nuxt static projects usually deploy .output/public or the generated dist directory.

Nuxt static builds usually upload .output/public or dist depending on your project configuration.

03

Upload and validate links

Upload the whole output folder and verify deep links, router navigation, and asset paths after the site is live.

Why teams move Vue sites to DeployPages

You keep the same Vue build pipeline, but you avoid patching routing rules and HTTPS setup by hand.

Vue deployment FAQ

Why are my CSS and JS files returning 404?

This usually means asset paths were built as absolute URLs for a different base. In Vite, review the base option and make sure your deployed output matches it.

Does this support Nuxt?

Yes for static output. Generate the static site first, then upload the generated public folder. DeployPages is not the right target for Nuxt server rendering.

Will Pinia or Vuex state survive a refresh?

Not automatically. A browser refresh resets in-memory client state. Persist important state with localStorage or your preferred persistence plugin.

Can I roll back to a previous release?

Yes. DeployPages keeps deployment history so you can revert to a previous static build when needed.
