963 markdown files reformatted with the repository's pinned prettier so pnpm format:check covers the folded tree like every other repo file. The formatter's embedded-language pass also normalized code fences (TS semicolons, closed HTML tags in examples, lowercased CSS hex colors, one renumbered list that skipped an index). Alphanumeric token deltas vs the fold commit were audited file-by-file; all are formatter-equivalent markup normalizations plus the four sanitized skills.

Vitest is a next-generation testing framework powered by Vite. It provides a Jest-compatible API with native ESM, TypeScript, and JSX support out of the box. Vitest shares the same config, transformers, resolvers, and plugins with your Vite app.
|
|
|
|
**Key Features:**
|
|
|
|
- Vite-native: Uses Vite's transformation pipeline for fast HMR-like test updates
|
|
- Jest-compatible: Drop-in replacement for most Jest test suites
|
|
- Smart watch mode: Only reruns affected tests based on module graph
|
|
- Native ESM, TypeScript, JSX support without configuration
|
|
- Multi-threaded workers for parallel test execution
|
|
- Built-in coverage via V8 or Istanbul
|
|
- Snapshot testing, mocking, and spy utilities
|
|
|
|
> The skill is based on Vitest 3.x, generated at 2026-01-28.
