Svelte 3 Up and Running

By: Alessandro Segala

Overview of this book

Svelte is a modern JavaScript framework used to build static web apps that are fast and lean, as well as being fun for developers to use. This book is a concise and practical introduction for those who are new to the Svelte framework which will have you up to speed with building apps quickly, and teach you how to use Svelte 3 to build apps that offer a great app user experience (UX). The book starts with an introduction to Svelte 3, before showing you how to set up your first complete application with the framework. Filled with code samples, each chapter will show you how to write components using the Svelte template syntax and the application programming interfaces (APIs) of the Svelte framework. As you advance, you’ll go from scaffolding your project and tool setup all the way through to production with DevOps principles such as automated testing, continuous integration, and continuous delivery (CI/CD). Finally, you’ll deploy your application in the cloud with object storage services and a content delivery network (CDN) for best-in-class performance for your users. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to build and deploy apps using Svelte 3 to solve real-world problems and deliver impressive results.

Summary

In this chapter, we've completed our journaling application, which is now featuring all views, and it's functional. To achieve that, we've learned about Svelte stores and transitions.

Additionally, we've taken a look at some other features of the Svelte 3 language and runtime that we can use to build applications, even though they were not used by our proof-of-concept one.

However, we're not quite done yet. In the next chapter, we'll look at two ways to do routing on the client side, replacing our "makeshift router" that we're using now with better options (and we'll see why our current solution is not ideal). We'll also look at some additional things to set up in our Svelte app to make it more robust.
