@startupjs/vite-plugin-startupjs

Compile web client in development using vite

Installation

1. Install vite and this plugin

   yarn add vite @startupjs/vite-plugin-startupjs
   

2. Add vite.config.mjs to the root of your project:

   import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
   import startupjsPlugin from '@startupjs/vite-plugin-startupjs'
   
   // https://vitejs.dev/config/
   export default defineConfig({
     plugins: [
       startupjsPlugin()
     ]
   })

Usage

Run server and web compilation together:

yarn start -v

If you want to run server and web compilation separately:

1. Run server with -v option:

   yarn server -v
   

2. Run web with -v option:

   yarn web -v
   

IMPORTANT things to follow when writing code:

1. You CAN NOT use .js/.ts for files which have JSX (or use Pug). You MUST name them .jsx/.tsx.

2. To leverage Vite's power of compiling only the pages you currently look at, you have to be using async imports on the router level.

   Make sure that pages/index.jsx (it might also be pages/index.js) in all of your apps have the following comment specified at the top of the file:

   /* @asyncImports */
   

   This will automatically transform all imports in this file into react lazy async imports.
