What does server.hot option in vite.config file?

[fedehiga]

in vite/vite.config.js file:

export default {
  server: {
    port: 8080,
    hot: true
  }
}

What does the 'hot: true' option does? I can't find that option in vite official docs.

Thanks for opening this issue @fedehiga.

I can't find it either, It was to enable hot reload which is apparently the case by default in Vite. But maybe that's a bad copy and paste from Webpack configuration (see https://webpack.js.org/guides/hot-module-replacement/).

We'll check that in detail, and if this is a bad copy and paste, we'll fix this repo, the Vue one, and also the Vite guide in Bootstrap docs.
