Vite+

The Unified Toolchain for the Web runtime and package management, create, dev, check, test, build, pack, and monorepo task caching in a single dependency

---

Vite+ is the unified entry point for local web development. It combines Vite, Vitest, Oxlint, Oxfmt, Rolldown, tsdown, and Vite Task into one zero-config toolchain that also manages runtime and package manager workflows:

• vp env: Manage Node.js and package managers globally and per project
• vp install: Install dependencies with automatic package manager detection
• vp dev: Run Vite's fast native ESM dev server with instant HMR
• vp check: Run formatting, linting, and type checks in one command
• vp test: Run tests through bundled Vitest
• vp build: Build applications for production with Vite + Rolldown
• vp run: Run package.json scripts and monorepo tasks with caching and dependency-aware scheduling
• vp pack: Build libraries for npm publishing or standalone app binaries
• vp toolchain: Show the versions of Vite+, Vite, Rolldown, Oxc, and other tools
• vp create / vp migrate: Scaffold new projects and migrate existing ones

All of this is configured from your project root and works across Vite's framework ecosystem. Vite+ is fully open-source under the MIT license.

Getting Started

Install Vite+ globally as vp:

For Linux or macOS:

curl -fsSL https://vite.plus | bash

For Windows:

irm https://viteplus.dev/install.ps1 | iex

vp handles the full development lifecycle such as package management, development servers, linting, formatting, testing and building for production.

Configuring Vite+

Vite+ can be configured using a single vite.config.ts at the root of your project:

import { defineConfig } from 'vite-plus';

export default defineConfig({
  // Standard Vite configuration for dev/build/preview.
  plugins: [],

  // Vitest configuration.
  test: {
    include: ['src/**/*.test.ts'],
  },

  // Oxlint configuration.
  lint: {
    ignorePatterns: ['dist/**'],
  },

  // Oxfmt configuration.
  fmt: {
    semi: true,
    singleQuote: true,
  },

  // Vite Task configuration.
  run: {
    tasks: {
      'generate:icons': {
        command: 'node scripts/generate-icons.js',
        cache: {
          env: ['ICON_THEME'],
        },
      },
    },
  },

  // `vp staged` configuration.
  staged: {
    '*': 'vp check --fix',
  },
});

This lets you keep the configuration for your development server, build, test, lint, format, task runner, and staged-file workflow in one place with type-safe config and shared defaults.

Use vp migrate to migrate to Vite+. It merges tool-specific config files such as .oxlintrc*, .oxfmtrc*, and lint-staged config into vite.config.ts.

CLI Workflows (vp help)

Start

• create - Create a new project from a template
• migrate - Migrate an existing project to Vite+
• config - Configure hooks and agent integration
• hooks - Manage the Git hook dispatcher
• staged - Run linters on staged files
• install (i) - Install dependencies
• env - Manage Node.js and package managers

Develop

• dev - Run the development server
• check - Run format, lint, and type checks
• lint - Lint code
• fmt - Format code
• test - Run tests

Execute

• run - Run monorepo tasks
• exec - Execute a command from local node_modules/.bin
• node - Run a Node.js script with the resolved Vite+ environment; use vpx <file> for TypeScript
• dlx - Execute a package binary without installing it as a dependency
• cache - Manage the task cache

Build

• build - Build for production
• pack - Build libraries
• preview - Preview production build

Manage Dependencies

Vite+ automatically wraps your package manager (pnpm, npm, Yarn, or Bun) based on packageManager and lockfiles:

• add - Add packages to dependencies
• remove (rm, un, uninstall) - Remove packages from dependencies
• update (up) - Update packages to latest versions
• dedupe - Deduplicate dependencies
• outdated - Check outdated packages
• list (ls) - List installed packages
• why (explain) - Show why a package is installed
• info (view, show) - View package metadata from the registry
• link (ln) / unlink - Manage local package links
• rebuild - Rebuild native modules
• pm - Forward a command to the package manager

Maintain

• toolchain - Show Vite+ tool versions and their relationships
• upgrade - Update vp itself to the latest version
• implode - Remove vp and all related data

Scaffolding your first Vite+ project

Use vp create to create a new project:

vp create

You can run vp create inside of a project to add new apps or libraries to your project.

Organizations can expose a curated set of templates under their npm scope by publishing @org/create with a createConfig.templates manifest in its package.json. Once published, vp create @org opens an interactive picker over those templates, and setting create: { defaultTemplate: '@org' } in vite.config.ts makes it the default for bare vp create. See the Organization Templates guide for the authoring workflow and create.defaultTemplate for the config reference.

Migrating an existing project

You can migrate an existing project to Vite+:

vp migrate

GitHub Actions

Use the official setup-vp action to install Vite+ in GitHub Actions:

- uses: voidzero-dev/setup-vp@<setup-vp-version>
  with:
    node-version: '22'
    cache: true

Set <setup-vp-version> to an exact version from the setup-vp releases page. You can use a commit SHA instead. Do not use the v1 tag. The v1 tag no longer receives updates.

See Automatic Version Updates to configure Dependabot or Renovate.

Manual Installation & Migration

If you are manually migrating a project to Vite+, install these dev dependencies first:

vp install -D vite-plus

Add package-manager overrides so that other packages use the Vite+ versions. Alias vite to @voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core, setting <vite-plus-version> to the installed vite-plus version. Pin vitest to <vitest-version>, using the bundled version shown by vp toolchain vitest. The project and vp test then use the same Vitest copy. Without the pin, a dependency or workspace package can install a different Vitest version. The two versions can use separate mocks, expect functions, and runner states:

"overrides": {
  "vite": "npm:@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core@<vite-plus-version>",
  "vitest": "<vitest-version>"
}

If you are using pnpm, add this to your pnpm-workspace.yaml:

overrides:
  vite@*: npm:@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core@<vite-plus-version> # Match the installed vite-plus version
  vitest@*: <vitest-version> # Match the version from vp toolchain vitest

Or, if you are using Yarn:

"resolutions": {
  "vite": "npm:@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core@<vite-plus-version>",
  "vitest": "<vitest-version>"
}
