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 in development with native ESM imports, eliminating the need for bundling during development. Vite supports hot module replacement, allowing for instant updates without a full page reload.

Compared to traditional bundlers like Webpack, Vite offers significantly faster build times and a more streamlined development workflow. It is particularly well-suited for Vue and React projects, providing a smooth development experience with features like optimized builds and pre-configured setups.
