What's Good
MIT (barrel/shopify-vite), vite-plugin-shopify release 5.0.0 (2026-08-16). Includes vite-plugin-shopify and vite-plugin-page-reload, with a docs site and configuration reference. Made by the Barrel agency. ★~0.5k.
The Catch
Only for theme development, not apps or Hydrogen. It runs alongside the Shopify CLI rather than replacing it, which means two dev processes. A small community.
Verdict
The modern way to bundle JS and CSS for a custom Shopify theme.
