Overview
SvelteScape is a Storybook alternative specifically designed for Svelte. It aims to provide a platform for managing complex components, as demonstrated in the Shapes example. It is built using Svelte and SvelteKit, making it compatible with these frameworks.
Features
- Allows management of complex data structures: SvelteScape enables the handling of more complex data structures, making it easier to manage and manipulate component data.
- Optional prop pre- and post-processors: This feature allows for pre-processing and post-processing of props, reducing the load on the Svelte component and improving runtime performance. For example, in the Shapes example, the SVG curve generator is moved to the postprocessor, improving performance.
- Made 100% in Svelte and SvelteKit: SvelteScape is built entirely using Svelte and SvelteKit, ensuring compatibility with these frameworks.
- Separate ts config files for defining stories: SvelteScape uses separate ts config files for defining stories, eliminating the need to modify or add code to the actual .svelte component files. This keeps the component files clean and separated.

- Create a project and navigate to its directory.
- Install the dependencies using
pnpm install. - Start the development server using
pnpm run dev. - To create a production version of your app, use
