Overview
Vite Plugin Pages is a powerful tool designed for developers working with Vue 3, React, or Solid applications using Vite. It simplifies the process of defining routes by leveraging the file system for page organization, making it easier to manage large projects. The plugin automatically generates routes based on the structure of your project, allowing you to focus on building features rather than dealing with complex routing configurations.
This plugin is particularly useful for those using Vue, but it’s important to note that Vue users are encouraged to consider unplugin-vue-router for better integration with Vue Router. For React developers, the plugin has streamlined support for react-router v6, ensuring optimal performance with modern React applications.
