Really enjoy working with Vite and it works great with React (many think it’s geared towards Vue, which perhaps it was at one point).

Made the switch after some frustrating behavior coming from CRA and having zero flexibility with configuration.

As a side note, Vitest is fantastic as well and I highly recommend giving it a try.

The constant iteration and revolution of basic front-end web dev makes me happy to be a mobile dev.

You're being downvoted but it's wild how frontend frameworks pop up, take hold, and then quietly disappear with the next iteration of the same thing with different syntactic sugar.

Just finished migrating the react project at work to vite and vitest after the pleasant experience I had with it in a private project. It was surprisingly little effort and is _so_ much faster and easier than the webpack mess we had before. I wonder if at some point they'll ditch rollup and go full esbuild. however Dev Server cold starts went from 34s to 0.3s and build times from 1m20s to 9s so I won't complain!
