@jackabox good writeup! glad to find another fellow dev using Laravel and Nuxt. How would you do a redirect in nuxt for:

On production:
domain.com -> domain.com/join
On dev:
Don't redirect from homepage( domain.com) to domain.com/join

Hey, sorry for the delay.

I'd look into the use of env variables here. Where you get the redirects in the middleware, we can do something like this..

const prodRedirects= require('../data/redirectsProd.json')
let redirects = require('../data/redirects.json')

if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
  redirects = [...prodRedirects, ...redirects]
}

This was a pretty quick example but would probably be the way I'd go
