ℹ️ Previously, Laravel configured several npm scripts for building assets. For Vite, Laravel configures a dev script for generating and watching your assets (for development) and build script for generating your assets (for production).

Shift automated this change by replacing commands using these scripts with their new Vite script. However, you may still be referencing these scripts in your code or in deployment scripts.

ℹ️ Laravel renamed the environment variables used by Mix to use a VITE_ prefix, instead of MIX_. While Shift automated this change throughout your code, you should check for any additional references which may not be included in your Git repository.

⚠️ Shift found files which appeared to contain JSX but had a .js file extension. Vite requires these files to have a .jsx file extension.

While Shift automated this change, you may have additional files which contain JSX or may need to update any imports explicitly referencing the old .js file extension.

⚠️ Shift detected you may be using the tilde (~) prefix to import CSS or JavaScript. You may try to add an alias for the ~ to your Vite configuration. Alternatively, you may update these imports to use an absolute reference or @ alias.

ℹ️ The new @vite Blade directive outputs <script> tags with the type="module" attribute. This attribute implicitly defers the script. This is a difference from Laravel Mix which may change the execution order of the JavaScript on your page.

If you experience JavaScript errors relating to undefined references, you may need to reorder your scripts or add the defer attribute to any inline <script> blocks on your page.
