Query: “What are the most common pain points with Vite for developers in 2025?”4/4/2026
Vite treats the backend as a separate concern. You run Express, Fastify, or serverless functions alongside your SPA, proxy calls in vite.config.js, and deploy separately. The separation is clean but forces you to manage two repositories, two pipelines, and CORS issues once authentication is involved.
