I’ve been working on some more frontend code recently, and got quite tired of my import paths looking like this
../../foo/bar/etc
How horrible! If I ever change directory structure, things are liable to break. That won’t do!
The internet suggested adding the following to my tsconfig.json
This resolved the squiggly lines in my editor, but my build was still failing. For some context - I’m using Tauri and Vite here.
It turns out, the issue was due to Vite. In order to support these aliases, we also need to add some config to vite.config.ts
First, install a plugin
npm install --save-dev vite-tsconfig-paths
Then, add it to your config
All done! My import paths are nice now
