Why Vite.js?

Vite is a build tool similar to Webpack. It can be used for React, Preact, Svelte, Vue, Vanilla JS, and LitElements. Vite is 100 times faster than Webpack and bundles your code with Rollup, pre-configured to output highly optimised static assets.

Vite has support for TypeScript projects as well. It provides a smooth and fast experience and makes your app run smoothly regardless of size.

Vite also supports hot module reload to reload a specific component on change during the development.

Unlike, React, where with the increasing app size, the performance slows down and takes a while to start or reload the dev server. On otherside, with vite, the performance doesn't change doesn't matter what the app size is..
