svelte + vite = sweet

• reads svelte configruation with cosmiconfig
• svelte preprocessor support
• svelte dependency optimization in dev
• svelte compiler result caching in dev
• hot module reloading thanks to svelte-hmr
• logging with configurable level
• drop-in installation as vite plugin

npx degit dominikg/svite/examples/minimal my-first-svite-project
cd my-first-svite-project
npm install
npm run dev # starts dev-server with hot-module-reloading
npm run build # builds to /dist

Install svite and vite as a dev dependency

npm install -D svite vite

Add as plugin to vite.config.js

const svite = require('svite');
module.exports = {
  plugins: [svite()],
};

just use regular vite or vite build commands

{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "vite",
    "build": "vite build"
  }
}

you can pass options to svite via vite.config.js

const svite = require('svite');
const sviteConfig = {
  hot: true, // boolean or options object for svelte-hmr
  useTransformCache: true, // boolean
  svelte: {}, // options for rollup-plugin-svelte
};
module.exports = {
  plugins: [svite(sviteConfig)],
};

Only change this option if you have to. See svelte-hmr for more Information

Improves performance for reloads.

When a reload request hits the dev server, vite runs transforms again. this option caches the result of the last transform and reuses it if the file was not modified. Uses more ram, less cpu and is a bit faster.

Set this to 'debug' if you want to see more output, use 'warn', 'error' or 'silent' for less. This only applies to svites own logging. Logging of vite remains unaffected.

use this option if you don't want to use any of the ways you can provide a svelte config via cosmiconfig or need a quick override.

as barebones as it gets, just an essential App.svelte

postcss and tailwindcss

routify with support for mdsvex

This is an early version, some things may not work as expected. Please report findings.

• more features
  • vite options
• release process
• tests

• svelte and vite obviously
• rixo - without svelte-hmr and your support this would not have been possible
• vite-plugin-svelte - initial inspiration
