OSS activity in March 2026
In March, I sent my first PR to Vite+. I wanted to use Vite+ at work. So I started with the problems in vp create and vp migrate.

fix: add troubleshooting tips for npm template not found error (#1055)
This was my first PR to Vite+. If you passed a template name that does not exist to vp create, the pnpm 404 error was shown unchanged (#828). Vite+ ran the package manager before it checked whether the package exists on npm. So I changed it to check the npm registry first. If the package is not found, Vite+ now shows a message that says so.
fix(create): show helpful error for unknown vite: templates (#1130)
If you pass an unknown vite: template, such as vp create vite:test, the command failed with ENOENT (#1128). A known vite: template is rewritten to create-vite@latest during the process. So if the name still starts with vite: at the end, the template is unknown. In that case, Vite+ now suggests running vp create --list.
feat(migrate): migrate .nvmrc to .node-version during vp migrate (#1159)
Vite+ reads the Node.js version from .node-version. However, many projects that use nvm write the version in .nvmrc (#1158). So I changed vp migrate to move .nvmrc to .node-version. It removes the leading v.
I was not sure what to do when .nvmrc contains node. .node-version cannot express node. At first, I showed a warning and skipped the migration. In review, I got a suggestion to convert it to lts/*. Node.js had announced that all major versions would become LTS from Node.js 27. So I chose the conversion, and the log now shows that it happened.
In this PR, I thought about one question most. It was not how to write the code. It was how Vite+ should behave. Which comes first: keeping the meaning of the original setting, or not stopping the migration?
feat(migrate): support volta node version migration to .node-version (#1201)
This is the Volta version of #1159 (#1183). If package.json has volta.node, vp migrate creates .node-version. If .nvmrc also exists, .nvmrc takes priority. Vite+ then shows the steps to remove the volta field by hand. The PR was merged on April 1.
