create-tauri-app multiple templates are broken about create-tauri-app HOT 8 CLOSED

Can't seem to reproduce the issue. The problem is in building the front-end, try removing node_modules and clearing the global npm cache. Also try running npm run dev and open it in the browser and see if anything is wrong.

from create-tauri-app.

did both (npm cache clean --force and removing node_modules with package-lock.json), no effect.

npm run dev also shows empty page in the browser with the same error in the devtools console.

well, this is a problem with the bundler (vite) and I am not yet able to reproduce it and seems very specific to your machine. can you try npm create vite@latest, choose a template and run it in the browser?

Ok, I've tried 2 project types:
react with JavaScript
vue with TypeScript

both run well(see screenshot from vue template)

Huh now tauri seems to work too... I guess the only thing thats different is npm create vite@latest somehow seems to fix stuff...

I guess i close this issue

I'm reopening this issue due to some new information.

So a bit of background - I have a HDD and a SSD on my pc. SSD is the smaller one (~500gb) so I only use it for Windows and some frequently-used big programs. Most of the Users folder like documents downloads etc. are on the HDD, except for one thing - some folders are placed physically on SSD but are linked using NTFS junctions with a folder in HDD. One of these special folders is where I usually place rust projects - due to how much drive access is used during compilation I like the boost that placing this folder on SSD gives me. So the whole thing looks something like this:

C:  <- this is SSD
 | --   accelerate_linked
 |         | -- rust 
 |         | -- .cargo, .rustup are also here

D: <- this is HDD
 | --  Users/UserName directory
 |        | -- rust    -> links to C:\accelerate_linked\rust
 |        | -- webdev  -  just a normal folder
 |        | -- documents  and other stuff

so let us see what happens shall we? this is the experiment:

1. cd to D:\Users\rust directory. 
2. run cargo create-tauri-app
3. select something like package manager: npm, project type: react-ts
4. cd into the project directory
5. npm install && npm run tauri dev

result: blank window.

6. take the project folder and copy it somewhere else (d:\Users\webdev)
7. cd into the copied folder
8. npm run tauri dev (!!)

result: everything works

9. cd into C:\accelerate_linked\rust\project folder
10. npm run tauri dev

result: everything is fine

So this appears to be a bug, right?... the question is only where

from create-tauri-app.

huh appears to be vite bug vitejs/vite#10802

from create-tauri-app.

thanks for taking the time to track this down. gonna close this issue and hopefully the vite team will fix it soon.
