On Windows 10, I open Powershell and run npm create vue@latest, choose No for all options and then open the vue project in vscode.

Without any changes to the project I run npm install and npm run dev in the terminal, if I click on the link created, I see the default vuejs template project in the browser:

However, if I run npm run build and then go to the dist folder and open the created indext.html file in the browser I only get a blank page:

It seems something does not work quite right with the paths on Windows, however so far I only managed to let the favicon in the header show up on the published build by changing vite.config.js as follows:

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  base: './', // adding this line let's the favicon show up
  plugins: [
    vue(),
  ],
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      '@': fileURLToPath(new URL('./src', import.meta.url))
    }
  }
})

What could be the issue here?
