This is a fork of https://github.com/ArnaudBarre/vite-plugin-swc-react-refresh
Use the versatility of swc for development and the maturity of esbuild for production.
- ✅ A fast Fast Refresh (~20x faster than Babel)
- ✅ Skip
import React
- ❌ Not compatible with automatic JSX runtime. See this section
- ❌ Don't check for consistent components exports. See this section
npm i -D vite-plugin-swc-react-refresh
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import swcReactRefresh from "@lucasols/vite-plugin-swc-react";
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [swcReactRefresh()],
esbuild: { jsxInject: `import React from "react"` },
});
This plugin is only used in development, and esbuild (which doesn't support the automatic JSX runtime) will be used by Vite for bundling. However, you can omit the default React import with the esbuild.jsxInject
Vite option.
For React refresh to work, your file should only export React components. The best explanation I've read is the one from the Gatsby docs.
However, having some components being hot updated and not others is a very frustrating experience as a developer, and I think this rule should be enforced by a linter, so I made an eslint rule to go along with this plugin.
This plugin expects this rule to be respected and will always fast refresh components. If a file export something that is not a React component (TS types are ok), update to this export would not propagate and require a manual reload.
