## 🚨 Breaking Changes

### Package Renamed to `@nuxtjs/sitemap`

This module is now the official Sitemap module for Nuxt. To properly
reflect this, the package has been renamed to `@nuxtjs/sitemap` from `nuxt-simple-sitemap` and
the GitHub repository has been moved to [nuxt-modules/sitemap](https://github.com/nuxt-modules/sitemap).

1. Update the dependency

```diff
{
  "dependencies": {
-    "nuxt-simple-sitemap": "*"
+    "@nuxtjs/sitemap": "^5.0.0"
  }
}
```

1. Update your `nuxt.config`.

```diff
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: [
-   'nuxt-simple-sitemap'
+  '@nuxtjs/sitemap'
  ]
})
```
