I created my empty react app with Vite v.6
and install Chakra UI
. But after starting the application, I see an error:
"Internal server error: Failed to resolve import "@chakra-ui/react".
I have installed @chakra-ui/react
. I use macOS
. The problem is, no matter what I import from chakra-ui
, the error is shown.
import { ChakraProvider, defaultSystem } from "@chakra-ui/react"
import { ThemeProvider } from "next-themes"
import React from "react"
import ReactDOM from "react-dom/client"
import { RouterProvider, createBrowserRouter } from 'react-router-dom'
import './styles/index.css'
import MainLayout from "./shared/layouts/MainLayout";
import Dashboard from "./modules/hex-grid/pages/dashboars/Dashboard";
const routes = createBrowserRouter([
{
element: <MainLayout />,
children: [
{ index: true, element: <Dashboard /> },
],
},
])
ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById("root")!).render(
<React.StrictMode>
<ChakraProvider value={defaultSystem}>
<ThemeProvider attribute="class" disableTransitionOnChange>
<RouterProvider router={routes} />
</ThemeProvider>
</ChakraProvider>
</React.StrictMode>,
)

I have uploaded the application to github so that you can reproduce my problem. (I even rebooted the computer and it didn't help.)
This is overriding Chakra UI's import path. You don't need to add extra path in your vite.config.ts
file.
import react from "@vitejs/plugin-react"
import { resolve } from "path"
import { defineConfig } from "vite"
import tailwindcss from '@tailwindcss'
// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [react(), tailwindcss()],
resolve: {
alias: {
"@chakra-ui/react": resolve("..", "..", "packages/react/src"),
},
},
})
import react from "@vitejs/plugin-react";
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import tailwindcss from "@tailwindcss/vite";
// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [react(), tailwindcss()],
});
