- Nue 2.0 is a complete website development environment in 1MB, focusing on small, focused tools that do one thing well.
- Key tools include Nuekit (web framework), Nuedom (UI assembly), Nuestate (state management), Nuemark (content development), Nueserver (server development), and Nueglow (syntax highlighting).
- Nuekit was completely rewritten for better performance and simplicity, now supporting Bun only.
- HTML templating in Nue 2.0 uses .html files with doctype declarations to determine processing methods.
- Nue 2.0 has zero external dependencies, offering full control over the stack for a lean developer experience.
- New features include SVG development, sitemap generation, RSS feeds, and improved SPA development.
- New tools introduced: Nuestate for URL-first state management and Nueserver for edge-first backend development.
- Four new templates available: minimal, blog, SPA, and full stack.
- Nue 2.0 is optimized for Bun due to shared vision, standards-based approach, rich features, and performance benefits.
- Upgrading from Nue 1.0 requires local installation first, with no backwards compatibility.
- Beta release currently tested on macOS; Linux and Windows compatibility unknown.
