devtools VS vite

The (devtools)[https://devtools.nuxt.com/] I want to talk about shortly are the (Nuxt)[https://nuxt.com/] devtools which are I would say by a landslide the best devtools out there. You don't need to trust me, just try it out, get a basic nuxt app running, open devtools, go to modules, add tailwind, maybe add an API route and play around with the dev tools a bit. I'm pretty confident in saying that it's the best experience out there in JS land, and belive it or not, the plan is to make it vue/nuxt agnostic, so it might become something react, svelte etc devs would enjoy in the future

Nuxt 3 got released a few months ago but the tool I was the most curious about remained unreleased. Until now! Today, the Nuxt team has announced the release of Nuxt DevTools! The previous version of Nuxt didn't have the dedicated devtools specifically for Nuxt so I was even more curious. The tool is still in beta but it's ready to test with the freshly released Nuxt 3.2 and I have to tell you something: it's absolutely gorgeous!

As of this writing, initializing a Hattip project requires some manual commands. However, keep in mind that a zero-config development environment based on Vite is in the works.

import { defineConfig } from 'vite' import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react' // https://vitejs.dev/config/ export default defineConfig({ plugins: [react()], server: { port: 4200, } })

For the frontend of "I Disappear," I leverage the automated build & deploy system provided by Netlify, which seamlessly integrates with Vite. This setup ensures that every deployment is optimized for performance, utilizing Vite’s modern build tools to enhance speed and efficiency.

Given our team's collective proficiency within the React ecosystem, we decided to leverage this expertise for our project. Initially, we contemplated utilizing Next.js; however, due to the limited practical experience with this technology among key engineers and the pressing timeline to develop the first prototype, we opted for a Single Page Application(SPA) approach. For bundling, we selected Vite, primarily due to its super fast build times, simplicity of configuration, and potential for a nearly seamless transition to server-side rendering.

We are continuing to add new project templates for various types of projects, and we've recently created one for the infamous combination of React with Vite tooling.

Vite focuses on providing an extremely fast development server and workflow speed in web development. It uses its own ES module imports during development, speeding up the startup time.

Vite and Next.js are both top 5 modern development framework right now. They are both great depending on your use case so we’ll discuss 4 areas: Architecture, main features, developer experience and production readiness. After learning about these we’ll have a better idea of which one is best for your project.

import { defineConfig } from 'vite' import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react-swc' import path from 'path' // https://vitejs.dev/config/ export default defineConfig({ plugins: [react()], server: { port: 3000 }, css: { devSourcemap: true }, resolve: { alias: { '~': path.resolve(__dirname, './src') } } })

I am currently utilizing Vite:
