Psst — looking for a more complete solution? Check out SvelteKit, the official framework for building web applications of all sizes, with a beautiful development experience and flexible filesystem-based routing.
Looking for a shareable component template instead? You can use SvelteKit for that as well or the older sveltejs/component-template
svelte app
This is a project template for Svelte apps. It lives at https://github.com/sveltejs/template.
To create a new project based on this template using degit:
npx degit sveltejs/template svelte-app
cd svelte-app
Note that you will need to have Node.js installed.
Get started
Install the dependencies...
cd svelte-app
npm install
...then start Rollup:
npm run dev
Navigate to localhost:8080. You should see your app running. Edit a component file in src
, save it, and reload the page to see your changes.
By default, the server will only respond to requests from localhost. To allow connections from other computers, edit the sirv
commands in package.json to include the option --host 0.0.0.0
.
If you're using Visual Studio Code we recommend installing the official extension Svelte for VS Code. If you are using other editors you may need to install a plugin in order to get syntax highlighting and intellisense.
Data format
[
{
id: faker.datatype.uuid(),
name: `${faker.name.firstName()} ${faker.name.lastName()}`
},
{
id: faker.datatype.uuid(),
name: `${faker.name.firstName()} ${faker.name.lastName()}`
},
]
Building and running in production mode
To create an optimised version of the app:
npm run build
You can run the newly built app with npm run start
. This uses sirv, which is included in your package.json's dependencies
so that the app will work when you deploy to platforms like Heroku.
Single-page app mode
By default, sirv will only respond to requests that match files in public
. This is to maximise compatibility with static fileservers, allowing you to deploy your app anywhere.
If you're building a single-page app (SPA) with multiple routes, sirv needs to be able to respond to requests for any path. You can make it so by editing the "start"
command in package.json:
"start": "sirv public --single"
Using TypeScript
This template comes with a script to set up a TypeScript development environment, you can run it immediately after cloning the template with:
node scripts/setupTypeScript.js
Or remove the script via:
rm scripts/setupTypeScript.js
If you want to use baseUrl
or path
aliases within your tsconfig
, you need to set up @rollup/plugin-alias
to tell Rollup to resolve the aliases. For more info, see this StackOverflow question.
Deploying to the web
Install vercel
if you haven't already:
npm install -g vercel
Then, from within your project folder:
cd public
vercel deploy --name my-project
Install surge
if you haven't already:
npm install -g surge
Then, from within your project folder:
npm run build
surge public my-project.surge.sh
