Vite 7.0.0 introduces several notable changes compared to its predecessor, version 6.3.5, impacting developers using this popular build tool. Examining the dependency updates, we see a significant shift with Rollup jumping from version 4.34.9 to 4.40.0, potentially bringing performance enhancements and new features in module bundling. Similarly, PostCSS moves from 8.5.3 to 8.5.6. Many of the devDependencies got upgraded to newer versions. Developers should pay attention to the updated versions of sass, lightningcss, and magic-string. Also, rolldown is a completely new devDependency. Worth mentioning are the peerDependencies where we find that sass and sass-embedded moved from * to specific version requirements. A new minimum version of @types/node 22.12.0 is introduced. The removal of source-map-support,@rollup/plugin-json,rollup-plugin-esbuild,@rollup/plugin-node-resolve could signal refactoring or integration of their functionalities directly within Vite's core, streamlining the build process without external plugins. The fileCount rose to 39 from 35 while the unpackedSize was reduced. These changes suggest that Vite 7.0.0 may deliver a more optimized and feature-rich development experience, warranting developers to evaluate the upgrade when considering potential improvements to build speed, dependency management, and overall workflow. The new release date for version 7.0.0 indicates future release date.
