Build modern website themes with fast, hot-reloading development.
This tool is a development environment built on Vite, designed for developers creating themes for a widely-used content management system. It provides a modern frontend workflow with features like hot module replacement, which speeds up the development process significantly.
Hot Module Replacement (HMR): Changes to SCSS and JavaScript files are reflected instantly in the browser without requiring a full page reload, saving development time.
Build Optimization: The tool compiles and bundles assets for production, creating optimized CSS and JavaScript files in a dist directory ready for deployment.
Modern Stack Support: It integrates support for SCSS (including partials), Tailwind CSS, and modern ECMAScript, allowing developers to use current frontend practices.
Development/Production Modes: A simple configuration switch toggles between a development mode that reads source files and a production mode that serves pre-built assets from the dist folder.
Image Format Support: The build process can handle image optimization and includes support for modern formats like WebP.
