What problem does this feature solve?

Currently I can't use Farm as I require Vite-like client functionality. I am working on backend integration and there are no plugins for my framework.

https://vitejs.dev/guide/backend-integration.html#backend-integration

With Vite I would:

  1. Programmatically add @vite/client script to the HTML page when in dev mode.
  2. Programmatically add TS/SCSS/other assets into the HTML page when in dev mode. In production, this would be JS/CSS/etc.
  3. Start my app/Vite's dev server
  4. Have HMR working

Example HTML:

What does the proposed API look like?

This does not currently exist in Farm, but does in Vite. See https://vitejs.dev/guide/backend-integration.html#backend-integration.

Template repos with some modern backend framework like Hono, Fastify or Elisya could be really helpful.
