We need to produce a 2-3 sentence plain-text summary, objective, factual, no marketing language, no superlatives, no calls to action. Must be at most 60 words. Must not wrap in quotes. Must be only the summary text. No markdown, no bullet points, no headings. Just plain text. We need to explain: what this skill does, what problem it solves, when to use it.

Vite
Based on Vite 8 beta (Rolldown-powered). Vite 8 uses Rolldown bundler and Oxc transformer.
Vite is a next-generation frontend build tool with fast dev server (native ESM + HMR) and optimized production builds.
Preferences
- Use TypeScript: prefer
vite.config.ts - Always use ESM, avoid CommonJS
