try vite

Use Case

We currently use babel to build our distribution for this package, and we use webpack for the demo app. Can we "update" our build tooling to a potentially faster/better/newer system like Vite?

Solution

try Vite for transpile step and for building the test app. Compare transpiled modules directory (es/) contents before and after to make sure distribution still looks ok. Especially take note of any css and web workers.

Rescoping this - let's close it after we have vite for building demo app and unit tests, and write a new ticket if we want vite to transpile the library for distribution.
