Vite Advanced

This is a comprehensive reference for Vite 8's big architectural shift to Rolldown, the Rust-based bundler that replaced esbuild and Rollup. You get detailed migration guides for the 7.7x faster builds, advancedChunks syntax that replaces manualChunks, and the Environment API for multi-target builds. It's structured as load-on-demand references rather than inline docs, which keeps Claude from context bloat when you're just tweaking a config. The breaking changes section is thorough, covering everything from transformWithEsbuild to transformWithOxc and the browser target bumps. Use this when upgrading existing Vite projects or setting up complex build pipelines with SSR, library mode, or custom plugins.

Vite Advanced Patterns

A wrapper around Vite 8 (Rolldown-powered), not a copy of its documentation. Vite's own docs are the source of truth for config keys, API surface, and migration mechanics. This skill carries the house delta plus four enforceable rules.

Vite 8 replaces the esbuild+Rollup pipeline with Rolldown (Rust-based unified bundler) and is the default for new projects. advancedChunks supersedes manualChunks; build.rollupOptions becomes build.rolldownOptions.

Upstream coverage (do not restate)

Fetch these from Vite rather than expecting them here. Rows marked with a rule keep a narrower, enforceable house subset in that rule file: read the rule for the house position, fetch the doc for the full API.
