Why This Matters

Vite+ is a comprehensive open-source toolchain that streamlines web development by integrating runtime management, package handling, testing, linting, formatting, and building into a single platform. Its unified approach simplifies workflows, accelerates development cycles, and enhances productivity for developers and teams. By managing the entire local development process, Vite+ represents a significant step toward more efficient and lightweight web application development.

Key Takeaways

We’re excited to open-source Vite+ under the MIT license. Vite+ is a new unified toolchain and entry point to web application development that manages your runtime, package manager, and frontend toolchain. Give it a try today!

What is Vite+? ​

Vite+ combines Vite, Vitest, Oxlint, Oxfmt, Rolldown, and tsdown into a single, unified web development toolchain for developing, testing, linting, formatting, and building projects for production driven by our new task runner Vite Task. Since web development requires a runtime such as Node.js and a package manager, Vite+ can also manage them for you, covering the full local development cycle.

With Vite+, web development becomes simpler, faster, and more lightweight:

vp env : Manages Node.js globally and per project

Manages Node.js globally and per project vp install : Installs dependencies using the correct package manager automatically
