Closed rgraue closed 5 months ago
@rgraue would you be open to a POC with vite? tbh i haven't used it myself, but i am very familiar with the pain of slow webpack builds and i've talked to other devs who switched from webpack to vite and saw things speed up significantly.
@rgraue i created a PR with what it would look like to migrate to vite. everything seems to be working well for local development, and the live reloads on a code change are quite a bit faster.
the production build output looks comparable (a ~1.1MB entry file and some other smaller lazy loaded files)

the only open question i have is whether the browserslist
configuration can be supported in vite
@sfishel18 sorry, somehow missed all these notifications! This looks awesome though!
Description
The DevServer we use right now (webpack) has been reported as slow, and is slowing down development. Look into ways to decrease live build/dev time
