Powering your favorite frameworks and tools

Loved by the community

Don't take our word for it - listen to what Vite community members have to say.

I'm loving what Vite enables. We've found building SolidStart that it is less a metaframework but a system of symbiotic Vite plugins. While built with SolidJS in mind, they should scale from our simplest template to opinionated starter. We're building an ecosystem on Vite.

Vite is basically the united nations of JavaScript at this point. I'll be there as a representative of Sveltelandia

Each and every time I use Vite, I feel a true sense of pure and unbridled joy.

It’s also a great platform to build a framework on since it provides a pluggable dev environment.

Community is amazing too.

Every time I suspect I've hit the bounds of what Vite can do, I end up being wrong.

Vite has been a game changer for the industry.

I am so excited to see so many great frameworks teaming up on top of vite. So many will benefit. ❤️ to the vite team.

Vite is gonna eat the (JavaScript) world.

Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, Vite is..... Vite is.... Wow 🤤🤯🙏
