Why Teams Leave Notion

All-in-one workspace for notes, docs, and wikis. Teams already using Notion who want to repurpose it as a lightweight CMS, but these limitations push teams toward modern alternatives.

Not designed as a CMS — API has rate limits and no webhooks

This is the most common reason teams migrate away from Notion. Nuxt eliminates this issue entirely.

Page load speeds make it unsuitable for public-facing sites

With Nuxt, auto-imports and file-based routing reduce boilerplate.

No built-in SEO, sitemap, or structured metadata

Modern architectures like Nuxt are designed to avoid this from the ground up.

Content formatting doesn't translate cleanly to web standards

After migrating, you'll no longer need to worry about this — Nuxt takes a fundamentally different approach.

What Nuxt Brings to the Table

Vue.js framework for SSR, SSG, and full-stack apps. Built with JavaScript/TypeScript (Vue.js), it's vue.js teams building content sites or full-stack applications.

Auto-imports and file-based routing reduce boilerplate

Hybrid rendering — SSR, SSG, ISR, and SWR per route

Nuxt Content module for Git-based Markdown content

Large Vue.js ecosystem and module library

Nuxt is open-source and free to use. You own your code and data with no vendor lock-in. Deploy to any host that supports JavaScript/TypeScript, or use managed platforms like Vercel and Netlify for zero-config deployments.

Is Notion to Nuxt the Right Move for You?

Migrating from Notion to Nuxt makes the most sense if you're experiencing not designed as a cms — api has rate limits and no webhooks or outgrowing Notion's architecture. Nuxt is best for vue.js teams building content sites or full-stack applications.

You should migrate if: your Notion site is slow, your hosting costs are climbing, you need developer flexibility, or you want to adopt a modern JAMstack architecture.

You might want to stay if: your Notion site benefits from extremely flexible — databases, wikis, docs, and kanban in one tool and you don't have JavaScript/TypeScript developers on your team. Notion is genuinely easy to use, and that simplicity has value.

The migration itself is straightforward with LeaveWP — enter your Notion URL, select Nuxt, and download your content. The more important question is whether Nuxt's architecture fits your team's skills and your project's long-term needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to migrate from Notion to Nuxt?
Most migrations from Notion complete in 10-20 minutes. We pull content via Notion's Notion API, then structured for Nuxt. Complex sites with extensive custom fields may take longer.
Will I lose my SEO rankings when migrating from Notion?
No. We help you set up proper 301 redirects from your old Notion URLs to preserve search rankings. Nuxt actually tends to improve Core Web Vitals scores, which can boost rankings over time.
What Notion content can be migrated to Nuxt?
Notion content types like pages, databases, blocks, files are all migrated to Nuxt. Content is converted to Markdown/MDX files or structured for your chosen headless CMS.
Do I need JavaScript/TypeScript experience to migrate?
No coding experience is required for the migration itself — LeaveWP handles the export and conversion automatically. However, customizing your Nuxt site afterward will benefit from JavaScript/TypeScript (Vue.js) knowledge. For teams without that expertise, the generated code is well-structured and documented, making it approachable for developers of any level.
How much does it cost to host a Nuxt site after migrating from Notion?
Nuxt sites can be deployed to Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, or any Node.js host — often on generous free tiers. Compared to Notion's Free / $10+/month pricing, static Nuxt sites can be hosted for free on Vercel or Netlify (up to generous bandwidth limits), which is significantly cheaper than running a Notion instance.
Can I migrate Notion custom fields and metadata to Nuxt?
Yes. Custom fields, metadata, and taxonomies from Notion are preserved during migration. In Nuxt, these become frontmatter fields in your Markdown/MDX files, which you can extend or restructure to fit your content model.
