What is Vite?

Vite is a build tool that aims to provide a faster and leaner development experience for modern web projects. It consists of two major parts:

• A dev server that provides rich feature enhancements over native ES modules, for example extremely fast Hot Module Replacement (HMR).

• A build command that bundles your code with Rollup, pre-configured to output highly optimized static assets for production.

Why Angular CLI start using Vite ?

Vite makes your builds faster.

• Early tests showed over72% improvement in cold production builds.

• In ng serve powers both your development and production builds with Vite!

*Angular CLI relies on Vite exclusively as a development server. *

Configuration and Support selector mathing

Angular compiler needs to maintain a dependency graph between your components which requires a different compilation model than Vite.

You can give Vite + esbuild a try by updating your angular.json:

"architect":{"build":{*Addtheesbuildsuffix*/"builder":"@angular-devkit/build-angular:browser-esbuild",
