Overview
The Meteor Svelte Starter is a starter project for Svelte on Meteor, created by Kevin Newman at NP Dev LLC. It provides a configuration for integrating Svelte with Meteor and includes features such as code splitting, routing, server-side rendering (SSR), data loading using Meteor’s tracker, and fast-rendering to prevent loading flashes.
Features
- Svelte Integration: Uses svelte:compiler for seamless integration of Svelte with Meteor.
- Code Splitting: Achieves perfect code splitting with Meteor’s dynamic-imports through npdev:svelte-loadable.
- Routing: Implements routing using svelte-routing to navigate between different pages.
- Server-Side Rendering (SSR): Utilizes Meteor’s server-render for SSR, with properly configured code split preloading through npdev:svelte-loadable.
- SSR Hydration: Implements SSR hydration, with optimized route-specific module preloading, using npdev:svelte-loadable.
- Data Loading: Demonstrates how to load data using Meteor’s tracker, ensuring efficient data retrieval.
- Fast Rendering: Integrates staringatlights:fast-render to hydrate pub/sub data before rendering, preventing a flash of loading.
