ViteConf 2025 Recap | VoidZero

Vite+ extends the familiar `vite` CLI with new commands for testing, linting, formatting, library bundling, scaffolding and task running. ... Vite+ removes the need for a “tooling PhD.” By unifying all important parts to develop a production-ready application in one CLI, it dramatically simplifies project setup and reduces configuration overhead. ... Until now, Oxlint’s performance advantage came with a drawback: you had to continue running ESLint while using Oxlint. Even though more than 500 linting rules were rewritten in Rust, you couldn’t utilize your custom ESLint rules, or any of the rules that was not ported over yet. Oxc Core Team member Jim Dummett presented at ViteConf what people were waiting for: **Oxlint’s JavaScript Plugin support** is now available. ... Vite DevTools will give you insights that were hard to retrieve before, such as which plugins are slowing your build down, how different Vite plugins transform your code, why your code is split up differently in the final bundle and how the different files are related to each other. ... If you’ve ever built a frontend app with Vite and then realized you need a backend for things like databases, user accounts, or you wanted to add server-side rendering (SSR), you know it can get complicated. Until now, you typically had three options: 1. Go all-in on a meta-framework, 2. manage a completely separate backend service, 3. or work your way to get your own manual SSR setup. Each path added complexity, forcing you to manage two different projects, deal with separate deployments, or a lot of manual plumbing and knowledge. With Nitro v3, this changes now! The next-gen server toolkit can turn your application into a true full-stack application with minimal friction. The best part? **Nitro now comes as a Vite plugin**. ... **Faster**. Taking an action and immediately observing the effect is key to experimentation. A fast feedback loop to iterate on. Imagine trying to find which switch turns on a light but there's a 3 minute delay. Swap turning on a light with linting and that’s what Linear’s engineers experienced. It took 3 minutes to locally lint Linear’s codebase. The exact opposite of a fast feedback loop. That’s why Linear adopted VoidZero’s Oxlint, which reduced linting times 90%, along with Rolldown-Vite and Vitest. Fast tools matter for developer experience and developer velocity.
