How to create vite app project

 

 1. Install Node.js

 Make sure you have Node.js installed. You can check if Node is installed by running:

node -v

If it’s not installed, download and install the latest version from the Node.js website.

2. Create a Vite Project

Vite provides a simple command-line tool to scaffold a new project.

Using npm:

  1. Run the following command:

    npm create vite@latest
  2. Provide a project name (or leave blank for the default vite-project).

  3. Select a framework: You’ll be prompted to choose a framework (e.g., React, Vue, Svelte, etc.). Select one, such as React, if you are building a React app:

    • Vanilla
    • Vue
    • React
    • Svelte
    • Preact
    • Lit
    • Solid

    Optionally, choose the variant (TypeScript, JavaScript).

    Example for React + TypeScript:

    ✔ Project name: … my-vite-app ✔ Select a framework: › React ✔ Select a variant: › React + TypeScript
  4. Navigate into the project folder:

    cd my-vite-app
  5. Install dependencies:

    npm install
  6. Run the development server:

    npm run dev

    The Vite app should now be running locally at http://localhost:5173.

Using yarn:

yarn create vite

3. Build for Production

When you’re ready to build the app for production, you can run:

npm run build

This will generate the optimized production build in the dist folder.

4. Preview the Production Build

To preview the build, use:

npm run preview

That’s it! You’ve created a Vite project!
