Vite is a build tool that aims to provide a faster and more efficient development experience for modern web projects. It leverages ES modules to serve code directly to the browser without the need for bundling during development, resulting in quicker startup times and faster hot module replacement. Vite supports various front-end frameworks like Vue, React, and Svelte, making it versatile for different project setups.

Compared to traditional bundlers like Webpack, Vite excels in speed and simplicity, especially for smaller to medium-sized projects. It offers a more streamlined development workflow and is actively maintained with regular updates and improvements.
