I have been trying to get nuxtServerInit to work for an hour now. it is never called. Is it because i use SPA mode?

@alexchopin I ended up following your advise from here and that helped a lot. It will be extremely useful to add that to FAQ. Also need to mention/clarify in nuxtserverinit doc that it only works on serverside.

@husayt it does not. I believe nuxtClientInit is in the works.

In the mean time, my solution was to create a middleware that gets run. Not sure if it'll fit your needs but worth a shot.

Also, it has been suggested that you can create a nextClientInit plugin, that also functions the same. I do however question, how you can ensure this plugin runs first before others and may run into a race condition against plugins.
