Automating with Nuxt.js + n8n: A Pocket Ninja Project 
Hey n8n community!
At Pocket Ninja LLC, we’ve been harnessing n8n for powerful automation solutions, and a recent project landed us a client! Today, we’re excited to share how we’re building a custom app with n8n and Nuxt.js to streamline expense and timesheet logging/approval, replacing tools like Expensify and integrating Workyard for job creation. 
The Challenge 
Our client was stuck with inefficient processes: disconnected tools, slow approvals, and technical/human errors. They needed a single, streamlined app to manage expense and timesheet workflows, with Workyard handling project setup.
Our Solution 
We built a custom app using n8n for automation and Nuxt.js for a user-friendly front-end:
-
Job Sync: Pulls project data from Workyard’s API to set context.
-
Input: Nuxt.js forms for seamless expense/timesheet submissions.
-
Validation: n8n logic nodes check for errors.
-
Approval Flow: Routes requests to managers, auto-approving simple cases.
-
Email Automation:
-
Weekly summaries of unapproved jobs.
-
Budget and hour reconciliation emails.
-
Optional notifications for new expenses/timesheets.
-
No code to share (client privacy), but envision n8n webhooks and logic paired with Nuxt.js for a polished UI.
Expected Impact 
We’re finalizing the app, targeting:
-
Approval times slashed from days to hours.
-
90%+ fewer errors.
-
15+ hours/week saved by automating processes.
