Vite: Failed to Resolve Import — How to Fix It

Failed to resolve import './Component' from 'src/App.tsx'. Does the file exist?

Vite can’t find the file you’re importing.

Fix 1: Check the file exists

ls src/Component.tsx

Fix 2: Check the extension

// ❌ Missing or wrong extension
import Component from './Component';

// ✅ Vite needs the correct path
import Component from './Component.tsx';

Fix 3: Configure aliases

// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import path from 'path';

export default defineConfig({
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      '@': path.resolve(__dirname, './src'),
    },
  },
});

Then use: import Component from '@/Component';

Fix 4: Restart Vite

# Kill and restart
npm run dev
