@effect-view/vite-plugin

Experimental Vite Fast Refresh support for Effect View components.

import { effectView } from "@effect-view/vite-plugin"
import react from "@vitejs/plugin-react"
import { defineConfig } from "vite"

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        effectView(),
        react(),
    ],
})

The plugin recognizes Component.make and Component.makeUntraced definitions imported from effect-view. The legacy effect-fc package is not supported. effect-view owns the bundler-neutral refresh cell protocol; this package is the Vite adapter that retains those cells in HMR data. The plugin assigns stable development IDs and self-accepts successfully instrumented modules.

The adapter-facing protocol is exported from effect-view/Refreshable.

Renaming or removing an instrumented View invalidates the module upward instead of leaving a stale mounted descriptor.

React state is retained when the ordered hook signature is unchanged. Adding, removing, or changing a hook call resets the Effect View implementation. Add // @refresh reset to a module to reset its Views on every update.

Current limitations

• Definitions must be top-level variable, class, or default-export declarations.
• Hook signature analysis is conservative and based on useX call syntax.
• Changing a descriptor's trait pipeline during a refresh is not guaranteed to preserve state.
• Source maps for the injected transform are not generated yet.
