For more technical details, implementations, and considerations for Oxlint's type-aware linting, see the blog post on the Oxc website.TL;DR: Oxlint's type-aware linting has reached alpha status. Type-aware rules can now be manually configured, disabled with comments, and fixed automatically. This milestone also includes more rule coverage, TypeScript diagnostics reporting, and type-checking while linting.

This post was originally published on the Vite blogTL;DR: The first beta of Vite 8, powered by Rolldown, is now available. Vite 8 ships significantly faster production builds and unlocks future improvement possibilities. You can try the new release by upgrading vite to version 8.0.0-beta.0 and reading the migration guide.

For more technical details about Vitest 4.0, see the blog post on the Vitest website or watch Vladimir's and Jessica's talk at ViteConf.TL;DR: Vitest 4.0 is released with Browser Mode being marked stable, Visual Regression testing support, and Playwright Trace support. The Vitest team will focus on performance improvement in the upcoming quarter. This major release includes breaking changes.

For more technical details, implementations, and considerations for Oxlint's support for JavaScript plugins, see the blog post on the Oxc website or watch the ViteConf talk.TL;DR: Oxlint now supports plugins written in JavaScript. Developers can customize and extend Oxlint using JavaScript, but at a speed approaching Rust, due to 'raw transfer' between Rust and JS, and other breakthroughs. Many ESLint plugins can run without any modification.

Announcing Vite+: a unified toolchain for JavaScript ​Last week, we unveiled Vite+ at the first-ever in-person ViteConf in Amsterdam. In this post, we’ll share more details about what it is and the motivation behind it.What is Vite+? ​Vite+ is a command-line developer tool you can install from npm, just like Vite itself. It’s a drop-in upgrade to Vite with additional features. Imagine that, in addition to vite dev and vite build, you can now also run:vite new — for scaffolding new projects, especially monorepos, with recommended structure that works best with Vite+. It also supports generating code, for example adding a new package to the monorepo, or invoking custom generators.vite test — run unit tests powered by Vitest. It provides a Jest-compatible API, works out of the box with your main application, and includes comprehensive features like browser mode, sharding, visual regression testing, and more.vite lint — lint your code with Oxlint, which ships with 600+ ESLint-compatible ru

Framer is a no-code website builder that lets customers like Miro, Perplexity, and Scale AI rapidly create and update dynamic websites without requiring developer support. The key to their growth is speed. Framer lets their customers ship fast sites. Sites as fast or faster than having a team of the best frontend developers. That means constantly looking at ways to improve their customers’ core web vitals like Large Contentful Paint, LCP.The challenge: Improving bundling and chunk splitting ​Like most modern websites, Framer bundles their customers’ websites to make the websites faster. The purpose of bundling is to reduce the total number of network requests. But a single big JavaScript file isn’t ideal either - in order to achieve the best possible performance, bundles are often split into “chunks”, and an optimal balance between chunk size and the number of chunks is needed. This relies on a bundler feature called “chunk splitting”.Chunks are files of optimized code created by bundl

TLDR: VoidZero is continuing our commitment to the Open Source Pledge and donating $48,360 or $3,454 per VoidZero developer to external open source projects.

For more details on the PLAID developer experience team’s Rolldown implementation, see the blog post on PLAID's website.TL;DR:PLAID’s server-side bundling dropped 97% during benchmarking after switching from Rollup + Terser to Rolldown + Oxc-minifyRollup’s single-threaded JS architecture was limiting performance and improvement attempts like caching were ineffectiveRolldown’s Rust architecture directly addressed Rollup’s constraints by enabling parallel processing and accelerating bundler operationAverage production wait times decreased from 5-20 seconds to 200ms

For more technical details, implementations, and considerations for Oxlint's type-aware linting, see the blog post on the Oxc website.TL;DR: Oxlint with type-aware linting is now available and supports 40 long-awaited rules including no-floating-promises. Oxlint uses tsgolint, which @auvred initially prototyped as typescript-eslint/tsgolint and generously offered to continue its development under the Oxc organization.

TL;DR: The first stable version Oxlint has been released! With a 50~100x performance improvement over ESLint, support for over 500 ESLint rules, and usage in major companies like Shopify, Airbnb, and Mercedes-Benz, you should give it a try. Get started now.

TL;DR: Try out the Rolldown-powered Vite today by using the rolldown-vite package instead of the default vite package. It is a drop-in replacement, as Rolldown will become the default bundler for Vite in the future. Switching should reduce your build time, especially for larger projects. Reach out to discover production use cases!

TL;DR: Through our partnership with NuxtLabs, Anthony Fu will work on creating Vite DevTools, a tool that will offer deeper and more insightful debugging and analysis for all projects and frameworks built on top of Vite.

TL;DR: VoidZero has joined the Open Source Pledge and is donating $3,000 per developer at VoidZero per year to external open source projects.

TL;DR: I have founded VoidZero Inc., a company dedicated to building an open-source, high-performance, and unified development toolchain for the JavaScript ecosystem. We have raised $4.6 million in seed funding, led by Accel.
