3-2 Handling Client-Side Errors with NuxtErrorBoundary

In this lesson, we look at how we can use the NuxtErrorBoundary component to elegantly handle client-side errors. By isolating errors to specific parts of our app, we’re able to have better error handling and error messages than a generic error page would allow.

We’ll look at how errors are created (and thrown) within Nuxt, how we can resolve these client-side errors, and how to show our own custom error messages.

This course was originally built with Nuxt 3, but it's no longer being maintained. You can still follow the lessons, but make sure to use the exact dependency versions listed in the course repository to avoid breaking changes.

If you’re looking for the most up-to-date and fully supported version, we recommend Mastering Nuxt: Full Stack Unleashed , which uses Nuxt 4 and actively being maintained.
