On the Internet, it was difficult for me to find a simple template assembly to replace Gulp, and I decided to implement my “Simple markup template for beginners VITE” so that you can start comfortably developing simple landing pages or simple multi-pages sites. The build leverages Vite's capabilities for a modern and reliable build process.

Key features of this template:

Build Tools: Vite.js Plugins: Autoprefixer, Imagemin, Imagemin-Webp, PostCSS Sort Media Queries, Vite plugin Image Optimizer Styles: SCSS Reset: Reset.css

Get your project up and running quickly with this template and start creating amazing web applications!

This template uses the following dependencies:

• Vite: A next-generation frontend build tool that offers a fast dev server and optimized builds.
• autoprefixer: Autoprefixer automatically adds vendor prefixes to CSS.
• vite-plugin-image-optimizer: Image optimization (png, jpeg, gif, tiff, webp, avif).
• imagemin-webp: Converts formats such as .png/.jpg etc to .webp format
• postcss-sort-media-queries: Plugin for sorting and combining CSS media queries with mobile first / desktop first methodologies.

1. To start using this template, clone the repository with this command:

git clone https://github.com/Grinch3214/vite-builder.git

2. Then rename the folder "vite-builder" and install the dependencies:

cd your-project-name
npm install

After cloning the template, make sure to clean up and update the following:

1. Remove the .git directory and run git init to clean the commit history.
2. Clean up the README.md file.
3. Adapt the LICENSE file to your project.
4. Delete public/vite.svg, folder demo/, src/img/**/*, src/fonts/**/* and also src/scss/**.* except style.scss and _reset.scss.
5. Remove unnecessary .html files in the pages folder.
6. Delete the content from src/scss/style.scss except @import "reset.scss";.
7. In the src/js/main.js file, leave only these import statements: import '../scss/style.scss';.

Use the following scripts for your development workflow:

# Start the development server
npm run dev

# Build for production
npm run build

# Preview the build
npm run preview

This is the structure of the project:
