        - Production                : if you are in production, the theme must be built before (npm run build)

    Port number : Enter the port on which the theme dev server is running (when you run `npm run dev`), default to 3000.

Vite config file

• If you rename the theme folder, please adjust the name [VITE_WIND_RENAMED] in vite.config.js accordingly.
• If you need many JS files for your layouts, add them all to the build.rollupOptions.input config array to be compiled.

import WindiCSS from 'vite-plugin-windicss'
export default ({command}) => ({
    base: command === 'serve' ? '' : '/themes/[VITE_WIND_RENAMED]/public/build/', // Addjust the name of the theme
    publicDir: 'fake_dir_so_nothing_gets_copied',
    processCssUrls: true,
    build: {
        manifest: true,
        outDir: 'public/build',
        rollupOptions: {
            input: [
                'resources/js/app.js',
                'resources/js/home.js',
                // Add here all the files you need if you load different javascript code in each layout
                'ressource/js/myFirstAddedFile.js',
                'ressource/js/mySecondAddedFile.js',
                ...
            ],
        },
    },
    plugins: [...],
});

Layout component

The Vitewind plugin register a layout component to inject JS and CSS assets,manage hot reload in Development and inject build assets in production.

Put the component in every layout and set the JS files you need to load for that layout.

Development

Run the command below in your theme folder:

npm run dev

The theme DEV server will start on http://localhost:3000/ and listen to any modification in your .htm files ( layouts, pages, partials,...). then, you can visite your site on its usual URL and start development.

Note the port of the dev server, if different from 3000 you need to adjust it in the backend settings.

Production build

Use npm run build to compile your assets.

npm run build

Don't forget to adjust the Enviroment to production in the backend settings.
