Vite Node Starter

Overview

If you're diving into the world of Node.js and TypeScript, the Vite, Vite-Node, and Vitest starter template offers a fantastic starting point specifically tailored for building Command Line Interface (CLI) scripts. This powerful combination allows developers to leverage modern tools for rapid development, making it easier to prototype and experiment with their ideas. However, it's important to note that this template is primarily designed for learning purposes and prototyping rather than for creating distributable applications.
