Why Vilo

1. Flexible Framework Support

Vilo is designed to work seamlessly with Vite, but it goes a step further by opening up support to all JavaScript frameworks—especially lesser-known ones. If you're working with a niche or custom UI framework, Vilo makes it easy to request a template specific to your framework. This adaptability allows developers to leverage Vilo regardless of their choice, opening doors to innovation without the constraints of mainstream frameworks.

2. Community-Driven Template System

Vilo understands that each framework has unique demands. That’s why it enables the community to submit requests for new templates. With this system:

  • Users can request templates for any UI framework, such as React, Vue, or emerging frameworks.
  • The community and maintainers can contribute these templates, ensuring that popular or innovative frameworks get the attention they deserve.
  • Rapid template updates guarantee compatibility with the latest versions of frameworks, so projects stay current and efficient.

3. High-Speed Development with Vite

Built on top of Vite, Vilo inherits the super-fast, lightning-quick build times and modern tooling that Vite provides:

  • Instant server start and hot reloading for rapid development.

4. Optimized for Modern UI Frameworks

Whether your framework is highly popular or more specialized, Vilo optimizes your development experience with Vite’s performance in mind. From rendering components to processing complex UI structures, Vilo is built to handle the unique needs of modern frameworks without compromising on speed or efficiency.

5. Streamlined CLI for Developers

Vilo's CLI system simplifies setup and project scaffolding. With just one command, you can create and configure your project, with support for TypeScript or JavaScript:
