   npm install react react-dom

In vite.config.js, set up Vite to work with React:

   export default defineConfig({
       plugins: [
           laravel({
               input: ['resources/css/app.css', 'resources/js/app.js'],
               refresh: true,
           }),
       ],
       build: {
           outDir: 'public/assets',
       },
   });

This configuration will output the assets to the public/assets directory instead of public/build.

One of Vite's standout features is its lightning-fast hot module replacement. When you save a file, Vite updates the modules instantly in the browser without a full reload, ensuring a seamless development experience.

Vite leverages esbuild for fast bundling during development and uses Rollup for optimized production builds. This dual approach ensures both speed and efficiency.
