The Nachet Frontend project, currently built with create-react-app, aims to improve its build time and developer experience by transitioning to Vite. Vite offers faster builds, hot module replacement, and other benefits that align with our development needs.
Objective
Migrate the entire Nachet Frontend project from create-react-app to Vite.
Ensure that all existing functionalities work seamlessly post-migration.
Achieve a significant reduction in start-up and build times.
Maintain or improve the current level of support for development features like hot module replacement, code splitting, and lazy loading.
Scope
Analyze and document the necessary changes for the migration.
Refactor the project configuration to align with Vite's requirements.
Update build scripts and commands in package.json.
Test the migrated project extensively to ensure all features work as expected.
Update the documentation to reflect new build and development processes.
Acceptance Criteria
The project builds successfully using Vite without errors.
Development features such as HMR (Hot Module Replacement) work correctly.
The application runs and functions identically to its create-react-app version.
Documentation is updated to guide new and existing developers on how to work with the Vite setup.
Risks and Challenges
Potential compatibility issues with Vite for specific packages or custom configurations used in the create-react-app setup.
Ensuring a smooth transition for the development team with minimal disruption to ongoing development efforts.
