This project is using Vite+, a unified toolchain built on top of Vite, Rolldown,
Vitest, tsdown, Oxlint, Oxfmt, and Vite Task. Vite+ wraps runtime management,
package management, and frontend tooling in a single global CLI called vp.
Vite+ is distinct from Vite, but it invokes Vite through vp dev and
vp build.
vp is a global binary that handles the full development lifecycle. Run
vp help to print a list of commands and vp <command> --help for information
about a specific command.
- create - Create a new project from a template
- migrate - Migrate an existing project to Vite+
- config - Configure hooks and agent integration
- staged - Run linters on staged files
- install (
i) - Install dependencies - env - Manage Node.js versions
- dev - Run the development server
- check - Run format, lint, and TypeScript type checks
- lint - Lint code
- fmt - Format code
- test - Run tests
- run - Run monorepo tasks
- exec - Execute a command from local
node_modules/.bin - dlx - Execute a package binary without installing it as a dependency
- cache - Manage the task cache
- build - Build for production
- pack - Build libraries
- preview - Preview production build
Vite+ automatically detects and wraps the underlying package manager such as
pnpm, npm, or Yarn through the packageManager field in package.json or
package manager-specific lockfiles.
- add - Add packages to dependencies
- remove (
rm,un,uninstall) - Remove packages from dependencies - update (
up) - Update packages to latest versions - dedupe - Deduplicate dependencies
- outdated - Check for outdated packages
- list (
ls) - List installed packages - why (
explain) - Show why a package is installed - info (
view,show) - View package information from the registry - link (
ln) / unlink - Manage local package links - pm - Forward a command to the package manager
- upgrade - Update
vpitself to the latest version
These commands map to their corresponding tools. For example,
vp dev --port 3000 runs Vite's dev server and works the same as Vite.
vp test runs JavaScript tests through the bundled Vitest. The version of all
tools can be checked using vp --version. This is useful when researching
documentation, features, and bugs.
- Using the package manager directly: Do not use pnpm, npm, or Yarn directly. Vite+ can handle all package manager operations.
- Always use Vite commands to run tools: Don't attempt to run
vp vitestorvp oxlint. They do not exist. Usevp testandvp lintinstead. - Running scripts: Vite+ built-in commands (
vp dev,vp build,vp test, etc.) always run the Vite+ built-in tool, not anypackage.jsonscript of the same name. To run a custom script that shares a name with a built-in command, usevp run <script>. For example, if you have a customdevscript that runs multiple services concurrently, run it withvp run dev, notvp dev(which always starts Vite's dev server). - Do not install Vitest, Oxlint, Oxfmt, or tsdown directly: Vite+ wraps these tools. They must not be installed directly. You cannot upgrade these tools by installing their latest versions. Always use Vite+ commands.
- Use Vite+ wrappers for one-off binaries: Use
vp dlxinstead of package-manager-specificdlx/npxcommands. - Import JavaScript modules from
vite-plus: Instead of importing fromviteorvitest, all modules should be imported from the project'svite-plusdependency. For example,import { defineConfig } from 'vite-plus';orimport { expect, test, vi } from 'vite-plus/test';. You must not installvitestto import test utilities. - Type-Aware Linting: There is no need to install
oxlint-tsgolint,vp lint --type-awareworks out of the box.
For GitHub Actions, consider using
voidzero-dev/setup-vp to replace
separate actions/setup-node, package-manager setup, cache, and install steps
with a single action.
- uses: voidzero-dev/setup-vp@v1
with:
cache: true
- run: vp check
- run: vp test- Run
vp installafter pulling remote changes and before getting started. - Run
vp checkandvp testto validate changes.
This project uses Convex as its backend.
When working on Convex code, always read convex/_generated/ai/guidelines.md
first for important guidelines on how to correctly use Convex APIs and
patterns. The file contains rules that override what you may have learned about
Convex from training data.
Convex agent skills for common tasks can be installed by running
npx convex ai-files install.
