Getting started

npx create-kaioken@latest

Add Kaioken and the Kaioken Vite plugin (for HMR):

npm install kaioken
npm install vite-plugin-kaioken --save-dev

Update your vite.config.ts (or add it in the top level of your project) and add the HMR plugin:

import { defineConfig } from "vite"
import kaioken from "vite-plugin-kaioken"

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [kaioken()],
})

Add the "jsx" entry in your tsconfig.json:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    ...
    "jsx": "preserve"
    ...
  }
}

Create a simple app:

export function App() {
  return <h1>Hello world!</h1>
}

Mount your app to the DOM:

import { mount } from "kaioken"
import { App } from "./App"

const root = document.getElementById("app")
mount(App, root)
