Vite 8 is released stable today: https://vite.dev/blog/announcing-vite8

excited to see the WIP on this :)

@controversial Just test failures. We think it's down to just a couple of issues, so hoping to get this merged into next and being able to do alpha releases soonish.

Thank you @matthewp

It's all green, so I am going ahead and merge this.

For anyone subscribed to the issue, we will publish an alpha release soon once we finish preparing our internal infrastructure. I don't know yet how and when, but I'm sure we will broadcast it via the social platforms somehow.

@ematipico AWESOME!

We’ll get an early prerelease of Astro 7 with Vite 8 support published soon!
