Adding vite-specific dependencies just for the renderer?

[Lexpeartha]

Let's say I need to add vite plugin/dependency just for the renderer process - for example auto importing of vue components; what am I supposed to do?
I tried adding few plugins renderer process, and managed to configure them (or at least I thought I did) and they worked like they were supposed to on dev server, but after running build command, executable that I got just starts with an empty browser window.

I guess this could also extend to adding maybe some css framework you will use only in renderer process, but I think perhaps there should be something in README.md that shows how to add process specific dependency so it doesn't break the rest of the project

It should work. In some of my projects, I installed dependencies and plugins (such as windi-css) and used them only in renderer without issues. I assume that the problem is elsewhere.

So you added them vite.config.ts that is in renderer folder?
That might be the issue, because I just put all my plugins in root config file without much thinking
