Get Vike's discord server tag ⚡️🟤

Added use cases for +onCreatePageContext and +onCreateGlobalContext to the docs.

Vike is the only framework with low-level hooks that let you build all kinds of web architectures. E.g. DocPress (SSG powering vike.dev) couldn't be built with other frameworks.

✨ 5,000 stars on GitHub ✨

🚀 Road to 50k:
- Make Vike the quickest way to get started with full-fledged apps (powered by Vike extensions + vike.dev/new)
- Marketing first — time to spread the word! (We’ve been heads-down building Vike’s foundation — almost done!)

[email protected]

✨ Many HMR fixes for + files
💫 +redirects support for SSG

Roadmap:
- Finish internal refactoring and polishing
- Open Source Pricing (we're hesitating about two different designs, we'll ask for feedback soon)

🧩 New extensions:
vike-react-zustand (github.com/vikejs/vike-...)
vike-react-redux (github.com/vikejs/vike-...)

🏷️ [email protected] New hook +onData (vike.dev/onData) — for populating stores with data.

Huge props to Dani for implemneting vike-react-zustand 💫

Vite's modularity is remarkable 🧩

The Vite team cares so much about designing APIs for its ecosystem that @hiogawa.bsky.social (Vite team) created a PR refactoring our Vike + React + Server Components extension.

Truly remarkable 💚

😍 Very excited about the future of server-side JavaScript.

Joël and I are working on something very relevant to all this. Stay tuned.

📢 Introducing vike-server

Joël, Dani, and I are beyond thrilled to announce vike-server — a new Vike extension that integrates Vite with any server (Express.js, Hono, ...) and any deployment (VPS, Netlify, Vercel, Cloudflare, ...).

👀 Big unveil next week 👀

Something Joël and I have been working on for months.

Now also talking with Netlify & Cloudflare.

The ball is rolling. Can't wait to build the server infrastructure common to many frameworks. Similarly to what Vite did with compilation.

universal-middleware (github.com/magne4000/un...) is just the beginning.

I'm psyched about a possible collaboration with Tanner — he's one of the most collaborative devS out there.

Collaborative code FTW — Open Source is nice, Collaborative Code is 🚀

@vite.dev has shown how to share infrastructure, let's double done on that.

We're chatting with @tannerlinsley.com as we speak about sharing server infrastructure.

Joël did an awesome job on universal-middleware, and we can't for it to eventually become the de facto JS server interop layer based on WinterCG and WHATWG.

After Gatsby (the previous build system) randomly died *again*, I migrated mausritter.com to use @vike.dev in a couple of hours. Much nicer api, super fast automated deploys 🙏

Vite 6.0.9 / 5.4.12 / 4.5.6 has been released with *breaking changes* due to security issues. I recommend upgrading it. Some users may need to update the config options. Please check github.com/vitejs/vite/... if you encountered any errors.

A new skin 🐛🦋 for a new year 🍾🎊

vike.dev has a brand new marketing.

It's only the beginning of us focusing on advertising Vike.

But, first things first, let's release 1.0 soon (ETA Q1). We can't wait.

Happy new year.

Unofficial @vite.dev ecosystem meeting in Munich. @brillout.bsky.social has the greatest ideas but I’m better at drinking beer 🍺
