change path index.html

[pitsanujiw]

Heya! Now, I used vite, that's good, however, I would like to change path first index.html to any path, any folder by not referring to any dependencies.

---public
        ---- index.html
---src
       ---- main.ts
       ---- app.vue

Thanks.

In vite, index.html is part of your source code. Vite parses/rewrites it during dev and also transforms it in build. Don't put it separate from your source code.

vite also in general do not accommodate any preference based options - if there is no real technical reason to add an option, then it will not be considered.

I believe that adding a mount option like snowpack will help in organizing as for me I prefer to have public for static html and robot.txt files and src for app core and many does as it more like a standard

You can manual add public folder, but vite will not parse it.
I add below to my custom.html:

in header:

<script type="module" src="/@vite/client"></script>
  <script type="module">
import RefreshRuntime from "/@react-refresh"
RefreshRuntime.injectIntoGlobalHook(window)
window.$RefreshReg$ = () => {}
window.$RefreshSig$ = () => (type) => type
window.__vite_plugin_react_preamble_installed__ = true
</script>

in body:

<div id="root"></div>
    <script type="module" src="/src/main.tsx"></script>

then visit http://localhost:3000/public/custom.html
