March was PACKED for the Vite ecosystem. 👀
Vite Plus, Vite 8 with Rolldown, Vitest test tags, Oxlint JS plugins, and much more.
Full recap in the video!

Navbar of Vitest's "learn" section in the docs, showing menu items like "Using Matchers" or "Writing Tests with AI"
Want to start writing tests but no idea how to get started?
The @vitest.dev docs now have a Learn section that covers evergreen concepts (matchers, tests, dealing with async code, mocks, ...) and also current topics like writing good tests with AI!
Time to get started 🎉
We published three security advisories affecting the dev server.
Only apps using --host are affected.
Update now to the patched versions:
- Vite 8.0.5 / 7.3.2 / 6.4.2
- Vite+ 0.1.16
Links to each vulnerability report below.
Running tests with `--experimental.preParse` runs only a single test file unlike previously when it would only apply `.only` per test file
@vitest.dev now has a new `--experimental.preParse` flag to avoid running all test files when you apply filters. For example, if you have `.only` tests or use `-t` or `--tags-filters` Vitest will now only run matching test files. Try it now!

A screenshot of the GitHub repository of vite-plus showing the "Private" label.
Effective immediately, we are making the vite-plus repository private.
The source will be distributed exclusively through our production sourcemaps.
We believe this is the only logical path forward given the recent events.
This does not change our stance on Open Source!
Did you know that @vitest.dev UI shows you slow tests since 4.1?
No more scrolling to find them!
Do you use Vitest UI or rather prefer the terminal output?
Screenshot of the compatibility docs, showing that almost all frameworks have partial or full support for both, linting at formatting.
Wondering which frameworks Oxlint and Oxfmt support?
The Oxc docs now have a compatibility page with details for each framework & file type
Almost all front-end frameworks have full or at least partial support for linting and formatting 🎉
Note: This also applies to `vp lint` and `vp fmt` of Vite+
Oxfmt is in beta for a month now! 🎉
◆ 100% Prettier conformance for JS/TS
◆ Seamless migration from Prettier via command
◆ Stable import sorting & Tailwind CSS support
◆ and more!
Are you using it already?

The first imports defineConfig from a partially pixelated module name starting with "vi", the second imports a pixelated export name starting with "v" from a pixelated module also starting with "v", and the third reads import { evan } from "@vuejs/amsterdam".
