This PR migrates the project from standard Vite to rolldown-vite, following the official Vite guide at https://vite.dev/guide/rolldown.html#how-to-try-rolldown. Rolldown is a Rust-based bundler that provides significant performance improvements while maintaining full compatibility with existing Vite configurations and plugins.

Performance Improvements

The migration delivers dramatic build performance improvements:

• Build time: 4.28s → 315ms (13.6x faster)
• Dev server startup: 306ms (consistently fast)
• All existing functionality preserved

Changes Made

1. Dependency Update: Replaced vite@^7.1.2 with rolldown-vite@^7.1.3 in the dashboard package.json
2. Configuration Update: Updated vite.config.ts to import from rolldown-vite instead of vite
3. Type Definitions: Updated vite-env.d.ts to reference rolldown-vite types and added proper CSS module declarations
4. Documentation: Updated README.md to reflect the new tech stack and performance improvements

Compatibility

• All existing build scripts work without modification (pnpm build, pnpm dev, pnpm preview)
• Existing Vite plugins (@vitejs/plugin-react) remain fully compatible
• No breaking changes to the development workflow
• TypeScript compilation updated to properly handle CSS imports

Testing

All functionality has been verified:

• ✅ Production builds complete successfully
• ✅ Development server starts and runs correctly
• ✅ Linting passes without issues
• ✅ Preview server works as expected

The migration is seamless and provides immediate performance benefits without any functional changes to the dashboard application.

Fixes #9.
