Overview of this book

Svelte has quickly become a popular choice among developers seeking to build fast, responsive, and efficient web applications that are high-performing, scalable, and visually stunning. This book goes beyond the basics to help you thoroughly explore the core concepts that make Svelte stand out among other frameworks. You’ll begin by gaining a clear understanding of lifecycle functions, reusable hooks, and various styling options such as Tailwind CSS and CSS variables. Next, you’ll find out how to effectively manage the state, props, and bindings and explore component patterns for better organization. You’ll also discover how to create patterns using actions, demonstrate custom events, integrate vanilla JS UI libraries, and progressively enhance UI elements. As you advance, you’ll delve into state management with context and stores, implement custom stores, handle complex data, and manage states effectively, along with creating renderless components for specialized functionalities and learning animations with tweened and spring stores. The concluding chapters will help you focus on enhancing UI elements with transitions while covering accessibility considerations. By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped to unlock Svelte's full potential, build exceptional web applications, and deliver performant, responsive, and inclusive user experiences.

Summary

In this chapter, we learned about how we can manage our application states with Svelte.

At the beginning of the chapter, we discussed some of the tips for managing states in Svelte through a Svelte store. These tips will be useful to you as your Svelte application grows larger and more complex.

One of the tips that we discussed is using state management libraries to manage data changes and data flows. That’s why we spent the second half of the chapter exploring how we can use state management libraries in Svelte, by transforming the state management libraries’ state into Svelte stores.

In the next chapter, we are going to explore how we can use a combination of both a Svelte context and a Svelte store to create renderless components—logical components that do not render any content.
