Nuxt Robots is a module for configuring the robots crawling your site with minimal config and best practice defaults.
The core feature of the module is:
- Telling [crawlers](https://nuxtseo.com/learn/controlling-crawlers) which paths they can and cannot access using a [robots.txt](https://nuxtseo.com/learn/controlling-crawlers/robots-txt) file.
- Telling [search engine crawlers](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/googlebot) what they can show in search results from your site using a `` `X-Robots-Tag` HTTP header.
