Vite Path Aliases Not Resolving in Build

Import aliases work in development (@/components) but fail in production build. Build fails with 'cannot find module' errors. Aliases not recognized by TypeScript or bundler.

Vite aliases require configuration in both vite.config.js and tsconfig.json. Missing either causes resolution failures.

Error Messages You Might See

Cannot find module '@/components' Unresolved type reference module not found

Common Causes

  1. Alias defined in vite.config.js but not tsconfig.json
  2. tsconfig.json baseUrl or paths incorrect
  3. Alias path doesn't exist or wrong relative path
  4. TypeScript not finding module even though Vite does
  5. Build using wrong config file

How to Fix It

Configure in both vite.config.js and tsconfig.json:

// vite.config.js
export default {
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      '@': '/src'
    }
  }
}

// tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "@/*": ["src/*"]
    }
  }
}

While AI can "vibe" a frontend into existence, I specialize in the architecture that keeps it from collapsing. My expertise lies in the critical backend infrastructure: the parts that must be fast, secure, and scalable. I thrive on high-pressure environments, such as when I had only three weeks to architect and launch an Ethereum redemption system with minimal prior crypto knowledge, turning it into a major revenue stream. What I bring to your project: Forensic Debugging: I don't just "patch" bugs; I use tools like Datadog and Explain Analyzers to map out bottlenecks and resolve root causes—like significantly reducing memory usage by optimizing complex DB joins. Full-Stack Context: Deep experience in Node.js and React, ensuring backends play perfectly with mobile and web teams. Sanity in the Age of AI: I bridge the gap between "best practices" and modern speed, ensuring your project isn't just built fast, but built to last.
