The landing page of Vite claims "Next Generation Frontend Tooling" but then go on to describe features that already have been existing for a good while (multiple years). What exactly is the "next generation" part here? The composition? That's also not new, so I think I'm either missing something very obvious, or they need to do a better job explaining how Vite is actually different.
Vite is way faster and takes way less config. We been using it in prod for almost a year now and it's just way better. One of the few new js tools thats actually better and doesn't just exist to get stars on github and pad a resume.
