Running vite and a deno server in workspaces

I want to write "deno task dev" and it will then start both the frontend (written with vite) and the deno backend at the same time.

the closest i got was this:

    "workspace": [
      "./server",
      "./client"

    "workspace": [
      "./server",
      "./client"
    ],
    "nodeModulesDir": "auto"
}

crtl+c

crtl+c
