Vite

Deploy framework-agnostic Vite projects as static sites on Hostinger, covering hPanel build settings, the dist output directory, and SSR alternatives.

Framework-agnostic bundler and dev server. Use this application type when your Vite project doesn't match a more specific framework (vanilla JS/TS, Lit, Solid, Qwik, etc.).

app_type: vite

Static mode

Vite on Hostinger is always static.

package.json

{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "vite",
    "build": "vite build",
    "preview": "vite preview"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "vite": "^5.0.0"
  }
}

hPanel settings

Field	Value
Application type	vite
Build script	build
Output directory	dist
Entry file	— (static)

Server mode

Vite's dev server is for development only. For SSR, use a framework that builds on Vite — Next.js, Nuxt.js, Astro, SvelteKit — or write a custom Node server and use other as the application type.

Notes

• Scaffold any Vite template: npm create vite@latest. Pick from React, Vue, Svelte, Preact, Lit, Solid, Qwik, or Vanilla.

• If your template matches a specific app_type (e.g. react, vue), prefer that — Hostinger picks better defaults.
