Hi, what would this help with?

We are dealing with multiple Nuxt apps, connecting with each other. Working localy with localhost and arbitrary port number (3000, 3001, 3002) is problematic.

hi @hugobqd,

Nuxt allows you to define host name using the --host or -h flag which you can define as whatever you wish, however you need to make sure to create that host on your computer before? i.e. if you add a host in your host file called myapp1 you could run pnpm dev --host myapp1 when running the app and it will run at that host.

If you share your system could maybe help you create additional hosts 😄
