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.

Stores and Animations

In this chapter, we will delve into the world of Svelte animations, focusing on the power and versatility of the tweened and spring stores. The tweened and spring stores are writable stores in which their store value changes over time when the set or update method is invoked, enabling us to develop more complex and visually appealing animations. By effectively harnessing these stores, you can elevate the user experience and create applications that are both dynamic and captivating.

We begin this chapter by delving into the tweened and spring stores, learning how to create animations using these stores. Following that, we explore interpolation and the use of custom interpolations. Throughout the chapter, we examine various examples, such as animated graphs and image lightboxes, to illustrate the concepts. By the end of this chapter, you will have acquired the skills necessary to harness the tweened and spring stores effectively, enabling you to create intricate...
