Warning
WMR is unfortunately no longer maintained. In its place, we'd recommend Vite with @preactjs/preset-vite. It offers many of the same features (like the prerendering API) but is much more robust and up to date. Thanks to all contributors and users over the years!
The tiny all-in-one development tool for modern web apps, in a single 2mb file with no dependencies.
All the features you'd expect and more, from development to production:
🔨 No entry points or pages to configure - just HTML files with <script type=module>
🦦 Safely import "packages" from npm without installation
📦 Smart bundling and caching for npm dependencies
↻ Hot reloading for modules, Preact components and CSS
⚡️ Lightning-fast JSX support that you can debug in the browser
💄 Import CSS files and CSS Modules (*.module.css)
🔩 Out-of-the-box support for TypeScript
📂 Static file serving with hot reloading of CSS and images
🗜 Highly optimized Rollup-based production output (wmr build)
📑 Crawls and pre-renders your app's pages to static HTML at build time
🏎 Built-in HTTP2 in dev and prod (wmr serve --http2)
🔧 Supports Rollup plugins, even in development where Rollup isn't used
Create a new project in seconds using create-wmr:
npm init wmr your-project-name
or
yarn create wmr your-project-name
💁 If you'd like ESLint to be set up for you, add
--eslintto the command. Note: this will use 150mb of disk space.
