remix vite:build results React to run in development mode

[shirshendubhowmick]

I have a Remix project setup with Vite, I migrated from remix compiler to vite using the official migration guide doc.

However when I build the app and serve either locally using Remix server or on vercel, I see React dev tools saying its running on development mode (the red React dev tool icon).

When I run remix vite:build I can even see longs which says

vite v5.4.11 building for production...

I am on
Remix v2.15.0
Vite: v5.4.11
Not really sure whats going wrong here. Any help would be appericiated.

Noticed the same today. I would expect that remive vite:build ends into the MODE='production' envvar
