Vite + Vue 3 + Typescript + Tailwind Starter

Simple, opinionated, fully typed, and production-ready project template for Vite.

This template is practical and batteries included but not overly complex or bloated. Also explicit configuration over magic; it should be easy to understand how everything works, strip out anything you don't need, and fast to modify things to your needs.

Includes plenty of examples and documentation of how to do things but minimal cruft to delete to get you going.

Please check out the homepage for full docs. A detailed changelog is available. This repository is also mirrored on GitLab.
