Decision

What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28

Adopt with guardrails

Why
1.0 with a locked semver API and named production users (Ramp, Mercedes-Benz.io, Beehiiv, PLAID, Framer) is genuinely production-grade for the build path, but residual experimental surfaces (watch, MagicString, output heuristics) warrant version pinning and plugin verification rather than blind adoption.
Next
Adopt transitively via Vite 8 on a pilot app; pin the Rolldown/Vite version, run a full plugin smoke test, and keep watch-mode-dependent dev flows on the stable path until watch mode exits experimental. On Vite 7, take the two-step path (switch to rolldown-vite first) before the Vite 8 jump.
