Release Notes

vitejs/vite-plugin-react (@​vitejs/plugin-react)

v5.0.2

Compare Source

Skip transform hook completely in rolldown-vite in dev if possible (#​783)

v5.0.1

Compare Source

Set optimizeDeps.rollupOptions.transform.jsx instead of optimizeDeps.rollupOptions.jsx for rolldown-vite (#​735)

optimizeDeps.rollupOptions.jsx is going to be deprecated in favor of optimizeDeps.rollupOptions.transform.jsx.

Perf: skip babel-plugin-react-compiler if code has no "use memo" when { compilationMode: "annotation" } (#​734)
Respect tsconfig jsxImportSource (#​726)
Fix reactRefreshHost option on rolldown-vite (#​716)
Fix RefreshRuntime being injected twice for class components on rolldown-vite (#​708)
Skip babel-plugin-react-compiler on non client environment (689)

v5.0.0

Compare Source

v4.7.0

Compare Source

Add HMR support for compound components (#​518)

HMR now works for compound components like this:

const Root = () => <div>Accordion Root</div>
const Item = () => <div>Accordion Item</div>

export const Accordion = { Root, Item }
Return Plugin[] instead of PluginOption[] (#​537)

The return type has changed from react(): PluginOption[] to more specialized type react(): Plugin[]. This allows for type-safe manipulation of plugins, for example:

// previously this causes type errors
react({ babel: { plugins: ['babel-plugin-react-compiler'] } })
  .map(p => ({ ...p, applyToEnvironment: e => e.name === 'client' }))

v4.6.0

Compare Source

Add raw Rolldown support

This plugin only worked with Vite. But now it can also be used with raw Rolldown. The main purpose for using this plugin with Rolldown is to use react compiler.

v4.5.2

Compare Source

Suggest @vitejs/plugin-react-oxc if rolldown-vite is detected #​491

Emit a log which recommends @vitejs/plugin-react-oxc when rolldown-vite is detected to improve performance and use Oxc under the hood. The warning can be disabled by setting disableOxcRecommendation: false in the plugin options.

Use optimizeDeps.rollupOptions instead of optimizeDeps.esbuildOptions for rolldown-vite #​489

This suppresses the warning about optimizeDeps.esbuildOptions being deprecated in rolldown-vite.

Add Vite 7-beta to peerDependencies range #​497

React plugins are compatible with Vite 7, this removes the warning when testing the beta.

v4.5.1

Compare Source

Add explicit semicolon in preambleCode #​485

This fixes an edge case when using HTML minifiers that strips line breaks aggressively.

v4.5.0

Compare Source

Add filter for rolldown-vite #​470

Added filter so that it is more performant when running this plugin with rolldown-powered version of Vite.

Skip HMR for JSX files with hooks #​480

This removes the HMR warning for hooks with JSX.

v4.4.1

Compare Source

Fix type issue when using moduleResolution: "node" in tsconfig #​462

v4.4.0

Compare Source

Make compatible with rolldown-vite

This plugin is now compatible with rolldown-powered version of Vite.
Note that currently the __source property value position might be incorrect. This will be fixed in the near future.

v4.3.4

Compare Source

Add Vite 6 to peerDependencies range

Vite 6 is highly backward compatible, not much to add!

Force Babel to output spec compliant import attributes #​386

The default was an old spec (with type: "json"). We now enforce spec compliant (with { type: "json" })

v4.3.3

Compare Source

React Compiler runtimeModule option removed

React Compiler was updated to accept a target option and runtimeModule was removed. vite-plugin-react will still detect runtimeModule for backwards compatibility.

When using a custom runtimeModule or target !== '19', the plugin will not try to pre-optimize react/compiler-runtime dependency.

The react-compiler-runtime is now available on npm can be used instead of the local shim for people using the compiler with React < 19.

Here is the configuration to use the compiler with React 18 and correct source maps in development:

npm install babel-plugin-react-compiler react-compiler-runtime @&#8203;babel/plugin-transform-react-jsx-development
export default defineConfig(({ command }) => {
  const babelPlugins = [['babel-plugin-react-compiler', { target: '18' }]]
  if (command === 'serve') {
    babelPlugins.push(['@&#8203;babel/plugin-transform-react-jsx-development', {}])
  }

  return {
    plugins: [react({ babel: { plugins: babelPlugins } })],
  }
})

v4.3.2

Compare Source

Ignore directive sourcemap error #​369

v4.3.1

Compare Source

Fix support for React Compiler with React 18

The previous version made this assumption that the compiler was only usable with React 19, but it's possible to use it with React 18 and a custom runtimeModule: https://gist.github.com/poteto/37c076bf112a07ba39d0e5f0645fec43

When using a custom runtimeModule, the plugin will not try to pre-optimize react/compiler-runtime dependency.

Reminder: Vite expect code outside of node_modules to be ESM, so you will need to update the gist with import React from 'react'.

v4.3.0

Compare Source

Fix support for React compiler

Don't set retainLines: true when the React compiler is used. This creates whitespace issues and the compiler is modifying the JSX too much to get correct line numbers after that. If you want to use the React compiler and get back correct line numbers for tools like vite-plugin-react-click-to-component to work, you should update your config to something like:

export default defineConfig(({ command }) => {
  const babelPlugins = [['babel-plugin-react-compiler', {}]]
  if (command === 'serve') {
    babelPlugins.push(['@&#8203;babel/plugin-transform-react-jsx-development', {}])
  }

  return {
    plugins: [react({ babel: { plugins: babelPlugins } })],
  }
})
Support HMR for class components

This is a long overdue and should fix some issues people had with HMR when migrating from CRA.

v4.2.1

Compare Source

Remove generic parameter on Plugin to avoid type error with Rollup 4/Vite 5 and skipLibCheck: false.

I expect very few people to currently use this feature, but if you are extending the React plugin via api object, you can get back the typing of the hook by importing ViteReactPluginApi:

import type { Plugin } from 'vite'
import type { ViteReactPluginApi } from '@&#8203;vitejs/plugin-react'

export const somePlugin: Plugin = {
  name: 'some-plugin',
  api: {
    reactBabel: (babelConfig) => {
      babelConfig.plugins.push('some-babel-plugin')
    },
  } satisfies ViteReactPluginApi,
}

v4.2.0

Compare Source

Update peer dependency range to target Vite 5

There were no breaking change that impacted this plugin, so any combination of React plugins and Vite core version will work.

Align jsx runtime for optimized dependencies

This will only affect people using internal libraries that contains untranspiled JSX. This change aligns the optimizer with the source code and avoid issues when the published source don't have React in the scope.

Reminder: While being partially supported in Vite, publishing TS & JSX outside of internal libraries is highly discouraged.

v4.1.1

Compare Source

  • Enable retainLines to get correct line numbers for jsxDev (fix #​235)

v4.1.0

Compare Source

  • Add @types/babel__cores to dependencies (fix #​211)
  • Improve build perf when not using Babel plugins by lazy loading @babel/core #​212
  • Better invalidation message when an export is added & fix HMR for export of nullish values #​215
  • Include non-dev jsx runtime in optimizeDeps & support HMR for JS files using the non dev runtime #​224
  • The build output now contains a index.d.cts file so you don't get types errors when setting moduleResolution to node16 or nodenext in your tsconfig (we recommend using bundler which is more close to how Vite works)

v4.0.4

Compare Source

  • Fix #​198: Enable Babel if presets list is not empty

v4.0.3

Compare Source

  • Revert #​108: Remove throw when refresh runtime is loaded twice to enable usage in micro frontend apps. This was added to help fix setup usage, and this is not worth an annoying warning for others or a config parameter.

v4.0.2

Compare Source

  • Fix fast-refresh for files that are transformed into jsx (#​188)

v4.0.1

Compare Source

v4.0.0

Compare Source

This major version include a revamp of options:

  • include/exclude now allow to completely override the files processed by the plugin (#​122). This is more in line with other Rollup/Vite plugins and simplify the setup of enabling Fast Refresh for .mdx files. This can be done like this:
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    { enforce: 'pre', ...mdx() },
    react({ include: /\.(mdx|js|jsx|ts|tsx)$/ }),
  ],
})

These changes also allow to apply Babel plugins on files outside Vite root (expect in node_modules), which improve support for monorepo (fix #​16).

With these changes, only the file extensions is used for filtering processed files and the query param fallback is removed.

  • fastRefresh is removed (#​122). This should be correctly activated by plugin without configuration.
  • jsxPure is removed. This is a niche use case that was just passing down the boolean to esbuild.jsxSideEffects. (#​129)

The support for React auto import whe using classic runtime is removed. This was prone to errors and added complexity for no good reason given the very wide support of automatic runtime nowadays. This migration path should be as simple as removing the runtime option from the config.

This release goes in hand with the upcoming Vite 4.3 release focusing on performances:

  • Cache plugin load (#​141)
  • Wrap dynamic import to speedup analysis (#​143)

Other notable changes:

  • Silence "use client" warning (#​144, fix #​137)
  • Fast Refresh is applied on JS files using automatic runtime (#​122, fix #​83)
  • Vite 4.2 is required as a peer dependency (#​128)
  • Avoid key collision in React refresh registration (a74dfef, fix #​116)
  • Throw when refresh runtime is loaded twice (#​108, fix #​101)
  • Don't force optimization of jsx-runtime (#​132)
