Nuxt is something on top of Vue, if you check this page you can see that it’s mainly adding SSR (useful for SEO).
On top of this, it provides a flexible ecosystem with cool defaults and some conventions. You can live without it and organize your project with conventions, make your whole SSR-thing or just use Nuxt.
The documentation should cover a lot of things like how to route, various hooks (asyncData and fetch), how to generate your project, how to automatically load some components, how to make SEO and a lot of other things.
Still, under the hood Nuxt is a Vue app on steroids and some stuff already done for you.

Nuxt(framwwork for vue) is a framework for working with VueJS(framework for javascript) withing boundaries, and alongside good standards. There are also a lot of buit-in good practices, and it gives you structure for your files alongsite its many upsides.
TLDR: VueJS is a framework for javascript, NuxtJs is a framework built around the Vuejs framework. So you are using Vue, when you are using Nuxt.
