```

## Introduction
Vite+ (Vite Plus) is a unified toolchain by the VoidZero team that wraps runtime management, package installation, and the Vite build system into a single coherent developer experience. Instead of separately managing Node versions, package managers, and build tools, Vite+ handles everything through one CLI.

## What Vite+ Does
- Manages JavaScript runtime versions (Node, Bun, Deno) automatically
- Handles package installation with an integrated fast package manager
- Provides the full Vite dev server and build pipeline
- Offers project scaffolding with curated templates
- Ensures consistent environments across team members

## Architecture Overview
Vite+ is built in Rust for speed and ships as a single binary. It embeds a runtime version manager (similar to fnm/volta), a package resolution engine, and orchestrates Vite under the hood. Project configuration is detected automatically from existing files, requiring zero migration effort for Vite-based projects.

## Self-Hosting & Configuration
- Install via shell script or download pre-built binary
- Works alongside existing Node installations without conflict
- Configure preferred runtime and package manager in viteplus.config.ts
- Pin runtime versions per-project via .viteplus-version file
- CI-friendly with deterministic resolution and caching

## Key Features
- Single binary replaces nvm + npm/pnpm/yarn + vite CLI
- Automatic runtime detection and installation
- Built-in dependency caching for faster installs
- Seamless migration from existing Vite projects (zero config change)
- Cross-platform support for macOS, Linux, and Windows

## Comparison with Similar Tools
- **Vite** — build tool only; Vite+ adds runtime and package management
- **mise** — runtime manager without build integration; Vite+ is web-focused end-to-end
- **Turbopack** — bundler only; Vite+ manages the full toolchain lifecycle
- **Bun** — runtime with bundler but opinionated; Vite+ supports multiple runtimes

## FAQ
**Q: Does it replace Vite?**
