# Vite

A next-generation frontend build tool providing a dev server, build command, and rich plugin ecosystem for modern web projects.

**Route:** surfaced by the Web Application and Frontend Hosting Platform lane's de-branded queries → competitor to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Sells the same dev-server and build-tool capability to the same frontend developers who would evaluate Vercel’s own build-deploy pipeline, making the two shortlisted against each other.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> Next generation frontend tooling for modern web development

> A dev server that provides rich feature enhancements over native ES modules

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

**Edges:**

- discusses [[coderlegion-com]]
- competitor [[v2-vitejs-dev]]
- competitor [[v2-vitejs-dev]]
