vite-wasm-browser-compiler
— Investigating the feasibility of Vite as a browser-based bundler, this project demonstrates that while Vite itself cannot operate directly in the browser due to its Node.js dependencies, client-side file bundling is achievable using alternative strategies. Three approaches were prototyped: a pure JavaScript "simple" bundler for inlining assets, an esbuild-wasm browser integration for ES module support, and full Vite bundling via StackBlitz WebContainers using vite-plugin-singlefile.
