Overview

Integrating Vite into October CMS can significantly enhance your development process, particularly when managing theme assets. This plugin is designed for seamless compatibility with October CMS versions 3 and above, making it a valuable tool for developers looking to optimize their workflow. By bridging the gap between Vite's powerful asset bundling capabilities and October CMS's flexible structure, you can enjoy a smoother, more efficient development experience.

Setting up the Vite integration requires a few straightforward steps. Once installed via composer, you'll need to configure it with your VITE_MANIFEST environmental variable and integrate specific tags into your layout. This allows you to include assets accurately and leverage Vite’s features efficiently—whether in development or production.
