Vite 4.0 is out!  December 9, 2022 - Check out the Vite 5.0 announcement Vite 3 was released five months ago. npm downloads per week have gone from 1 million to 2.5 million since then. The ecosystem has matured too, and continues to grow. In this year's Jamstack Conf survey, usage among the community jumped from 14% to 32% while keeping a high 9.7 satisfaction score. We saw the stable releases of Astro 1.0, Nuxt 3, and other Vite-powered frameworks that are innovating and collaborating: SvelteKit, Solid Start, Qwik City. Storybook announced first-class support for Vite as one of its main features for Storybook 7.0. Deno now supports Vite. Vitest adoption is exploding, it will soon represent half of Vite's npm downloads. Nx is also investing in the ecosystem, and officially supports Vite. As a showcase of the growth Vite and related projects have experienced, the Vite ecosystem gathered on October 11th at ViteConf 2022. We saw representatives from the main web framework and tools tell stories of innovation and collaboration. And in a symbolic move, the Rollup team choose that exact day to release Rollup 3. Today, the Vite team with the help of our ecosystem partners, is happy to announce the release of Vite 4, powered during build time by Rollup 3. We've worked with the ecosystem to ensure a smooth upgrade path for this new major. Vite is now using Rollup 3, which allowed us to simplify Vite's internal asset handling and has many improvements.
