Template Details

This is a starter template based on Vite and React. The repository is named vite-template-react, maintained by SafdarJamal, and licensed under MIT. The template is positioned as a minimal viable project starting point: the README states that it does not include complex configurations or an elaborate directory structure, keeping only the files needed to build an application.

Regarding the directory structure, public contains favicon.svg and robots.txt; src includes App.css, App.jsx, App.test.jsx, index.css, index.jsx, logo.svg, and setupTests.js; the root directory contains .gitignore, index.html, package.json, README.md, and vite.config.js.

For the development workflow, the README provides steps to clone the repository, remove the original .git and reinitialize, install dependencies, and start the local server, with the page viewable at port 3000 by default. Available scripts include npm start (development mode), npm test (interactive test runner), npm run build (build to the dist directory), and npm run serve (preview the production build in dist).

Limitations and notes: the materials do not specify exact dependency versions, styling approach, or production deployment configuration; the style field is marked as to be organized. The demo site is hosted by surge.sh and is only for viewing the page effect. The free scope applies only to this MIT-licensed version of the code; third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons must be checked against their respective licenses, and external services such as domains, hosting, and databases may incur separate charges.

How this score is calculated

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

What to verify for this project

Repository update recorded
2025-03-07
Screenshot last checked

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.

The catalog identifies Vite as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
