The question I have is: Is Vite becoming the all-in-one nodejs tool that is replacing all the other full featured js tooling favorites like Bun, Deno and pnpm?

[francislavoie]

Vite is not a package manager and is not a JS runtime. That's what Node/Bun/Deno do. Vite is the remaining glue for any web project's build and testing needs.

[Sammi]

Bun and Deno are not js runtimes either. They are wrappers for existing js runtimes and add additional apis.

[francislavoie]

But they give a usable interface and toolkit to the runtime (V8 etc). 99% of users use one of those three.

Just use Vite Plus (viteplus.dev)

[ramon156]

Vite is unmatched

[moomoo11]

vite just works

[pjmlp]

Nope, mostly using pnpm over here.

That's orthogonal; Vite (and its ecosystem) _with_ pnpm is likely the best combination avlbl.
