πŸš€ Getting Started with Vite + React | Superfast React Setup

Hey developers πŸ‘‹,
Today I began my React JS journey, and instead of using the traditional Create React App (CRA), I explored the modern approach β€” Vite + React. It’s faster, simpler, and developer-friendly!

πŸ›  What is Vite?

Vite (French for "fast") is a next-generation frontend build tool that offers instant server start, lightning-fast HMR (Hot Module Replacement), and optimized builds β€” making it perfect for modern frameworks like React.

βš™οΈ How to Create a React App with Vite

npm create vite@latest my-app
# Choose: React
cd my-app
npm install
npm run dev

That’s it! Your Vite + React app is now running on localhost:5173 πŸš€

πŸ“‚ Folder Structure (Minimal & Clean)

my-app/
β”œβ”€β”€ public/
β”œβ”€β”€ src/
β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ App.jsx
β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ main.jsx
β”‚   └── index.css
β”œβ”€β”€ vite.config.js
└── package.json

πŸ’¬ Have you used Vite in your projects? What’s your experience? Let’s discuss below!
