Cloudflare acquires VoidZero, pledging Vite, Vitest, Rolldown and Oxc stay MIT-licensed
Cloudflare has acquired VoidZero, Evan You's company behind the Vite build tool, Vitest test runner, Rust-based Rolldown bundler, and Oxc toolchain. You and his team join Cloudflare's Emerging Technology and Incubation group and keep leading the projects, which the post says stay MIT-licensed, vendor-agnostic, and community-driven, with apps built on Vite still running anywhere. Cloudflare is also committing $1 million to a Vite ecosystem fund for outside maintainers, administered by the Vite core team. The post names no acquisition price; the open question is whether a vendor owning the toolchain millions of projects depend on stays neutral once Workers deployment is wired in natively.
