- Change minify option from 'terser' to 'oxc' in vite.config.ts - Remove terserOptions since they're not needed with oxc minifier - Fix ESLint error by prefixing unused catch variable with underscore - Oxc is the high-performance Rust-based minifier used by rolldown-vite - Expected benefits: faster minification with better performance
- Add type assertion for minify: 'oxc' option which is supported by rolldown-vite but not in standard Vite types - Update comment for webpackStats plugin to reflect rolldown-vite compatibility - Resolves TypeScript compilation errors in CI
