Upgrade and Optimize Nuxt.js Application and Dependencies from 2.8.1 to 3.10.1

### Project Description: We are seeking a skilled developer to undertake a comprehensive upgrade and optimization of our existing customer portal, which is currently powered by [login to view URL] 2.8.1 and interacts with our backend API (ERP system). This project entails a series of critical updates, a transition in package management, and an audit for adherence to current best practices in web development. The main goal is to ensure our application is up-to-date, secure, and efficiently structured for both performance and maintainability. ### Key Project Objectives: 1. Upgrade [login to view URL] Framework: The core of this project involves upgrading our application from [login to view URL] version 2.8.1 to 3.10.1. This upgrade is critical for leveraging the latest features, security patches, and performance improvements offered by Nuxt.js. 2. Update All Dependencies: Along with upgrading the [login to view URL] framework, all associated dependencies within the project must be updated to their latest versions that are compatible with [login to view URL] 3.10.1. This ensures the application runs smoothly without any deprecated features or security vulnerabilities. 3. Transition to Bun Package Manager: We aim to migrate our package management system from Yarn to Bun. This transition requires the successful candidate to reconfigure the project's dependency management and build processes to fully integrate with Bun, taking advantage of its performance benefits and features. 4. Software Audit and Optimization: Given that the original codebase is five years old, a thorough audit is necessary to identify any outdated practices, inefficient code patterns, or security concerns. The developer will need to: - Assess the current codebase for best practices in coding, architecture, and security. - Recommend and implement necessary changes to ensure the application adheres to modern standards of web development. - Optimize code for performance, readability, and maintainability. 5. Documentation: Update the project documentation to reflect all changes made during the upgrade process, including any new patterns or practices adopted as part of the codebase optimization. Documentation should also include a guide for using Bun as the new package manager. ### Ideal Candidate: - Proficient in [login to view URL], with experience upgrading from version 2.x to 3.x. - Familiar with Vue.js and its ecosystem, as [login to view URL] is based on Vue.js. - Experienced in migrating package managers, specifically from Yarn to Bun, with a solid understanding of Node.js environments. - Strong background in web development best practices, with the ability to audit and optimize legacy codebases. - Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail. - Capable of working independently and efficiently to meet project deadlines. ### Project Deliverables: - Upgraded and fully functional [login to view URL] application running version 3.10.1. - All dependencies updated to versions compatible with [login to view URL] 3.10.1. - Successful migration of the project's package management system to Bun. - A comprehensive audit report outlining findings and the actions taken to address them. - Updated project documentation, reflecting all changes made during the upgrade process. This project presents an exciting opportunity to modernize a key piece of our digital infrastructure. We look forward to collaborating with a developer who shares our commitment to quality, performance, and security.
