feat: Migrate project to Vite #17
Conversation
This commit includes the following changes: - Removed Webpack configuration files (`.babelrc`, `webpack.config.js`). - Added Vite configuration file (`vite.config.js`). - Updated `package.json` with Vite-related scripts and dependencies, and removed Webpack dependencies. - Renamed JavaScript component files to JSX (`.js` to `.jsx`) to align with React best practices and Vite's default handling. - Updated `index.html` to include the Vite module script. - Updated `BufferReader.js` to remove CommonJS `module.exports` as it's no longer needed with ES Modules.

Code Review
This pull request successfully migrates the project from Webpack to Vite, which should significantly improve the development experience. The changes are well-structured, including updating dependencies in package.json, adding a vite.config.js, renaming React components to use the .jsx extension, and updating the module system to ES Modules.
However, I've found a critical issue with incorrect dependency versions in package.json that will prevent the project from installing its dependencies. I've also found a syntax error in the new vite.config.js that would break the build, and a logical issue with the publicDir setting that could break asset paths. My detailed comments explain these issues and suggest fixes.
Additionally, please note that this PR also upgrades React from v18 to v19. This is a major version upgrade with potential breaking changes and it would be good to mention it explicitly in the PR description.
Once these issues are addressed, this will be a great step forward for the project's tooling.
Moves static assets from the `static` directory to the default `public` directory and updates paths in `index.html`. The custom `publicDir` option has been removed from the Vite configuration.
This pull request migrates the project's build system from Webpack to Vite. This change aims to significantly improve the development experience with faster cold starts and hot module replacement (HMR), as well as optimize the build process for production.
Key changes include:
webpack.config.js,.babelrc) and related dependencies have been removed.vite.config.jshas been added, configuring Vite with React support and Node.js polyfills for browser compatibility.package.jsonhas been updated to include Vite and@vitejs/plugin-react, while removing all Webpack and Babel dependencies..jsReact component files and entry points insrc/have been renamed to.jsxto clearly indicate they contain JSX syntax and to leverage Vite's optimized handling of such files.public/index.htmlhas been updated toindex.htmlat the root and now includes the Vite module script (/src/index.jsx).utils/BufferReader.jsto remove CommonJSmodule.exports, aligning with the ES Module standard enforced by Vite.This migration streamlines the development workflow and sets the foundation for a more modern and efficient build environment.
