Answer 1

ok, I got success by this. Hope this helps you and save some time.

1. Run npm install handsontable @handsontable/vue
2. Create a file name vue-handsontable.js under plugins directory and put as following.

const HotTable = !process.client ? null : require('@handsontable/vue').HotTable
export default HotTable

3. Open nuxt.config.js and append following.

  build: {
    vendor: ['handsontable'],
  },
  plugins: [
    { src: '~/plugins/vue-handsontable', ssr: false },
  ]

4. Go to your template file and put lines like this.

<template>
  <HotTable :settings="settings" :data="data"></HotTable>
</template>

<script>
  import HotTable from '~/plugins/vue-handsontable'

  export default {
    data: function() {
      return {
        settings: {
          data: [
            ["", "Ford", "Volvo", "Toyota", "Honda"],
            ["2016", 10, 11, 12, 13],
            ["2017", 20, 11, 14, 13],
            ["2018", 30, 15, 12, 13]
          ],
          colHeaders: true,
          rowHeaders: true,
        }
      };
    },
    head: {
      link: [
        { rel: 'stylesheet', type: 'text/css', 
          href: '/your/path/to/css/directory/handsontable.full.min.css' },
      ]
    },
    components: {
      HotTable
    }
  }
</script>

Wish you best of luck.
