FAQPage Schema
How do I use Svelte 5 runes for state management in SvelteKit?

Svelte 5 runes manage state in SvelteKit using `$state` for reactive variables, `$derived` for computed values, and `$effect` for side effects. This Skill provides expert guidance on correctly applying these runes for robust reactive state.

What's the best way to structure server and client logic in SvelteKit?

The best way to separate server and client logic in SvelteKit is by using `.server.js` files for server-only operations and API endpoints. This Skill outlines conventions for server-side rendering, client-side interactivity, and secure data fetching.

How do I implement optimistic UI and form handling in SvelteKit 5?

Implement optimistic UI and form handling in SvelteKit 5 by leveraging form actions and progressive enhancement. This Skill covers patterns for updating the UI immediately before server confirmation and managing batch updates efficiently.

How can I optimize SvelteKit routing and performance with lazy loading?

Optimize SvelteKit routing and performance by implementing lazy loading for components and applying debouncing for user input. This Skill explains how to use file-based routing conventions effectively to reduce initial load times.

Does SvelteKit 5 support type safety and infinite loading out of the box?

SvelteKit 5 supports type safety natively and allows for implementing infinite loading patterns. This Skill details how to ensure type safety across your application and build infinite scrolling features with proper data fetching.
