Note: This plugin is considered experimental and is under active development; we do not offer API stability guarantees as development continues. Minor versions may include breaking changes - see release notes for details on migration.
This plugin makes it easy to set up standard vite tooling to compile both your main process code and your renderer process code, with built-in support for Hot Module Replacement (HMR) in the renderer process and support for multiple renderers.
