How do I migrate from Create React App to Vite without breaking anything?
My team has a 3-year-old React app built with CRA. Webpack is slow and maintenance has stopped. What is the safest path to migrate to Vite without breaking the existing build pipeline and tests?

I have built two collaborative editing applications and strongly recommend the CRDT approach with Yjs:
Why CRDTs over OT: CRDTs are mathematically guaranteed to converge without a central server arbitrating conflicts. This means better offline support and simpler server architecture. OT requires a central server to transform operations in order.
Tech Stack: Use Yjs for the CRDT implementation - it is production-ready and battle-tested. Pair it with TipTap or ProseMirror for the rich text editor. For WebSocket infrastructure, use the y-websocket provider or Hocuspocus for a more feature-rich solution.
Scaling: For 20 concurrent editors, a single WebSocket server handles it easily. For larger scale, use Redis pub/sub to synchronize multiple WebSocket servers.
