Solved: need to externalize vue in webpack to ensure vue components render properly.

Works as expected when configured properly in webpack.

Nested Vue Component does not render when bundled separately with webpack

To replicate behavior where nested vue component does not render, do the following:

Bundle Everything (Nested Component Renders Fine)

When I bundle and compile Vue components and server-side Vue code in the same bundle.

npx webpack --config webpack.config.js
node dist/bundleWithServer.js

Output:

<!--[-->
<div> Hello from Test1! <p class="greeting">Hello from Test2!</p></div>
<!-- vs. -->
<div> Hello from Test1! <p class="greeting">Hello from Test2!</p></div>
<!--]-->

Bundle just Vue Components (Nested Component does not render for Options API)

When I bundle Vue Components using webpack then use components (ultimately for SSR), the nested vue component does not render.

npx webpack --config webpack-vue.config.js
node index.mjs

Output:

<!--[-->
<div> Hello from Test1! <p class="greeting">Hello from Test2!</p></div>
<!-- vs. -->
<div> Hello from Test1! <p class="greeting">Hello from Test2!</p></div>
<!--]-->
