Unable to understand the issue.

My configuration:
Host nuxt 3 app:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  vite: {
    plugins: [
      federation({
        name: 'host-app',
        remotes: {
          remote_app: "http://localhost:5173/assets/remoteEntry.js",
        },
      })
    ]
  },
  experimental: {
    asyncEntry: true
  },
})

Remote: Vue 3 App:

import { fileURLToPath, URL } from 'node:url'

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
import federation from '@originjs/vite-plugin-federation';

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    vue({
      template: {
        compilerOptions: {
          // treat all tags with a dash as custom elements
          isCustomElement: (tag) => tag.includes('-')
        }
      }
    }),
    federation({
      name: 'remote-app',
      filename: 'remoteEntry.js',
      // Modules to expose
      exposes: {
        './Button': './src/Button.vue',
      },
    })

  ],
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      '@': fileURLToPath(new URL('./src', import.meta.url))
    }
  }
})

remoteEntry.js file is also being generated at
http://localhost:5173/assets/remoteEntry.js

Please help!
