Recently I tried Vite and I was blown away by how fast it was. I re-checked if I started the app correctly because I couldn't belive that it starte...

Speed is really the only truly measurable UX enhancement. At a certain threshold it's not necessarily the most important thing, but what is more important than time. Anything that can keep me in my flow by not blocking me to wait can be the difference between effective and ineffective capacity to accomplish the task.
So I'm all about this, and generally feel like it's coming from a good place of solving a distinct problem.
Totally agreed, anything that can save me or my team’s time is worth writing about. Excited about all the new JavaScript tooling coming out!
Is it possible to switch from CRA to Vite?
I have done it many times, it's a pretty easy migration.
Though all the CRAs that i have transferred to Vite have no custom Webpack configs
The only custom thing I did was add CRACO and Tailwind CSS. I just started learning React, its been a few weeks by now, I'm reading a bit here and a bit there on my spare time, writing a bit of code in my breaks... this kind of stuff. Vite has caught my attention, but I don't want to add another layer of complexity on something that is already confusing.
I see that you are maybe using craro to enable Tailwind's watch mode etc.., Vite already works out of the box with Tailwind, so i think Vite is better for you in that regard.
CRA is pretty established in the React tooling ecosystem, compared to Vite, so unless you are working on a critical kind of project, Vite is the way to go.
Nothing critical =) just my portfolio, that I'm using as a excuse to learn React. I'll give it a go then! Thanks for your input!
Hey Renan, yes it's pretty easy to migrate to Vite with few changes but if you're new to React ecosystem CRA might be a better choice
Vite uses ESbuild for development and rollup for production bundle
Vite is my favourite with React and TypeScript!
I have a very old thinkpad x220 with HDD and everything run up in around 1-2s. Just imagine how fast with newer laptop & SSD :D
with build tools like these, the future of javascript development looks really exciting. One small correction, you have interchanged the screenshot of "select a framework" and "select a variant".
Yes me too, thank you I fixed the issue
