Vite Ruby is a set of Ruby libraries that integrate the Vite.js frontend build tool with Ruby frameworks like Rails and Hanami. It enables instant dev server startup, hot module reload, and zero-config production bundling integrated with Rails asset precompilation.

Use cases

• use vite instead of webpacker in a rails app
• add hot module reload to my ruby web app frontend
• bundle javascript assets in hanami with vite
• speed up frontend dev server startup in rails
• integrate vite build with assets:precompile rake task
• replace webpack with a faster frontend tooling setup in ruby

When to choose

• you're building a Rails or Hanami app with modern JavaScript or TypeScript frontend
• you want fast HMR and instant dev server start compared to webpacker
• you want production bundling with tree-shaking integrated into Rails asset tasks

When to avoid

• your app has no JavaScript/frontend assets beyond minimal scripts
• you're heavily invested in webpacker or importmap-rails and don't need a bundler
• your stack isn't Ruby-based
