VITE+(⚡︎) Local CLI

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

This package provides the project-local version of Vite+. The global vite command automatically delegates to this package for all project-specific tasks.

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 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: Execute monorepo tasks with caching and dependency-aware scheduling
• vp pack: Build libraries for npm publishing or standalone app binaries
• 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',
        envs: ['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)

• 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, or Yarn) 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
• pm - Forward a command to the package manager

Maintain

• 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@v1
  with:
    node-version: '22'
    cache: true

Manual Installation & Migration

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

npm install -D vite-plus @voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core@latest

You need to add overrides to your package manager for vite and vitest so that other packages depending on Vite and Vitest will use the Vite+ versions:

"overrides": {
  "vite": "npm:@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core@latest",
  "vitest": "npm:@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-test@latest"
}

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

overrides:
  vite: npm:@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core@latest
  vitest: npm:@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-test@latest

Or, if you are using Yarn:

"resolutions": {
  "vite": "npm:@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core@latest",
  "vitest": "npm:@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-test@latest"
}
