vite-livewire-plugin VS vitepress

So I've been using composer require and you just include the vendor/autoload but I can't see a similar file for Laravel... unless it's public/build/assets/app.f3423.js... which gets generated when I do npm run build... but I look in the file and.. well I just did npm install for https://github.com/def-studio/vite-livewire-plugin - aand... I don't think the stuff is in there... I'm just so overhwelmed... all I wanted was to use https://bootstrap-vue.org/docs/components/popover which was part of Headless UI... omg so many frameworks... I just want the drop down to work like it does on Tailwind UI on Vue drop down setting here: https://tailwindui.com/components/marketing/sections/heroes - am I in over my head?

There is a discussion related to naming on GitHub: https://github.com/vuejs/vitepress/discussions/548

> I initially gave VitePress a different name because I wanted to be able to explore a different architecture without worrying about backwards compat. After shipping the vuejs.org with VitePress, I believe VitePress is flexible enough to be a full replacement of current VuePress while offering better DX and better performance.

Given that version 1 landed as "VitePress" they probably decided to keep the name.

> I think we should ship VitePress stable as VuePress 3, but I am open to potential questions and concerns.

> Pros: Less confusion in the long run. There will be just one officially maintained SSG with better DX, better performance, and customization that fully aligns with standard Vite-based Vue apps.

> Cons: Potential confusion in the short run, since there are probably a lot of tutorials / integrations targeting VuePress 1. Still I think with the recent Vue 3 switch, users won't be surprised with a major upgrade for VuePress.

I was inspired by a great series of blog posts and decided to adapt the approach to my needs. In this blog post, I will go over the solution I used in my VitePress site but you can also check a more basic example in this CodePen.

While researching which static site generator we would use, we had a lot of frameworks to pick up from, but only some addressed our needs. While choosing, we needed it to have a good "default" template, out-of-the-box plugins, and be easy to extend its functionalities. From our research, the one that matched most criteria and felt the easiest to start and progress with was Vitepress.

They are using the default theme of VitePress which is a great tool for building content-centric websites such as documentation

Thankfully, an entire ecosystem of frameworks makes docs sites easy to build and services that make static sites easy to deploy. In this post, you'll learn how to build a docs site with VitePress and deploy it to the internet with Render.

I have a few Jekyll blogs including my personal one and I haven't had to touch the Jekyll part for quite a while (it takes a while to compile). I just write in Obsidian and then Github takes over.

I also maintain two VitePress[1] sites. Once I setup it up (I still use Sublime Text), I do the writing on Obsidian.

What I write and see in Obsidian is good enough that I have just done away with looking at how the site looks after I change/add/edit the text. I sometimes do but just to check build and if the sitemaps are generated, etc. -- routine hygiene.

Consider Nuxt instead of Vuepress/Vitepress. If you want the built-in theme in Vitepress, it's great, but if you want to make your own, using Nuxt with the Content plugin is probably better. I found the strong separation between theme and content to be too great, and if I have a docs SSG site using Vitepress and a webapp SSR site using Nuxt, I can't share themes easily anyway.

At least that was my conclusion starting with Vitepress, and ending up with Nuxt 3.
