[@AlfredTuinmanOurManInIndia]

I may be missing a point but how do i procress a js file before rendering the html page. In Webpack one has an html (ejs) file and a js file per page. So I am kind of lost here. I don't use frameworks and only vanilla javascript

Vite is the best!

[@cnikolov]

Its really cool I just didn't get why would you use typescript but without type checking? just to get features such as interfaces etc? would it be worth to write interfaces if there is no type checking

[@mohammedaliagha7520]

VSCode or another IDE that's setup properly will give you type-checking, so doing `let foo: number = "bar"` for example will show an error in the IDE

[@ricosrealm]

What's the point of supporting Typescript in development if there's no type-checking? The claim that your ide can handle that is not a good one. VScode isn’t a great tool for surfacing errors in customized typescript workflows or just in deeply nested projects in general.

[@AnimusAgent]

Why is angular not supported? I know that angular cli is already using esbuild on version 13, so angular cli is just as fast as vite?

[@krtirtho]

A little bit of clarification, Well, not type checking typescript files wasn't a choice for Vite, it's a limitation bound to ESBuild Since ESBuild is written in Go & Go is a statically typed language. But it doesn't support interfaces/unions/generics (generics are supported in beta though). Also it's OOP works bit differently & uses structs instead of classes (similar to Rust/C) to support OOP-'ish' paradigm. Thus it's hard to implement the TS Type-Checker in Go but not impossible Also implementing "static" Typechecking is a lengthy process & requires huge patience & a lot of code. All the reason combined it was a bit too hard for the ESBuild (also Vite) team to accomplish such difficulty but we know OSS, right? We'll overcome this limitation too!👍 BTW, for your information, the one & only Typescript type-checker is the official one. Though there's been work going on in SWC (Rust based frontend build system) but it seems the author will keep the type-checker part proprietary & paid

[@Ilyushya]

Vite is awesome, but I must admit I get a bit lost between what I was thinking a frontend tooling does and what a framework does(typically, why vite's plugin could manage my app framework. Is it still a bundler/tool to manage/compile my frontend since it starts to handle logic of the app? As a newbie, it's a bit hard for me to understand where Vite ends and where Vue starts.
