Vite is currently working on a rollup rewrite in Rust, called rolldown[1], that will provide dramatic speed improvements. It’s a drop-in replacement for the most part, and slashed our built times down to 12%.

You can replace eslint and prettier with Biome or Oxlint + Oxfmt. Vite and Node.js are still the modern safe choices, though if you actually want to play with new things you can replace Node.js with bun.

Bun is great with Sveltekit
