Privacy-Focused Alternatives To Google Analytics
I recently wrote an article on how to add google analytics to a Nuxt JS app. In that post, I described the process I followed to install Google Analytics on this blog. I chose Google Analytics out of habit, without stopping to think whether it was the right solution for me.
I knew that I would have to add a cookie banner to get visitors' permission to use cookies on their device. This led me implement a solution that ensures Google's tracking script is not loaded until the user gives their explicit consent.

That said, the days when you could just add analytics without thinking about the privacy of your users is thankfully coming to an end.
