Vite Orchestrator

When to use this skill

• Use when initializing the frontend or when a repo lacks a Vite + TS config.
• Triggered by prompts mentioning Vite, vite.config, tsconfig paths, or Tailwind wiring.

Instructions

1. First Step: Verify project root and package.json exist. If not present, suggest npm create vite@latest -- --template react-ts.

2. Second Step: Create/update tsconfig.json with baseUrl and paths (@/* → src/*). Provide a tsconfig.json snippet and ensure the TypeScript server is restarted.

3. Third Step: Create vite.config.ts using @vitejs/plugin-react and vite-tsconfig-paths and configure CSS handling (PostCSS/Tailwind if requested).

4. Fourth Step: Add recommended npm scripts to package.json (dev, build, preview, lint, test, format) and list required dependencies to install.

Examples

• "generate vite.config.ts with tsconfig aliases"
• Commands: npm i -D vite @vitejs/plugin-react vite-tsconfig-paths and npm i -D tailwindcss postcss autoprefixer (if Tailwind enabled)

Additional Resources

• Vite: https://vitejs.dev
• vite-tsconfig-paths: https://github.com/aleclarson/vite-tsconfig-paths

Notes

• Recommend using vite-tsconfig-paths to avoid duplicating aliases in Vite config.
• If running in CI, show how to set VITE_ env vars during build.
