Call your server code from the client like normal functions.
Superactions is an innovative library designed to enhance the SvelteKit framework by introducing the ability to call server code directly from the client, akin to how it is done in React Server Actions. This feature simplifies the interaction between client and server, allowing developers to execute server-side logic seamlessly. While still in its early stages, this library promises to fill a noticeable gap in the SvelteKit ecosystem by making data fetching and manipulation more intuitive and versatile.
As SvelteKit continues to evolve, Superactions aims to streamline the process of sending complex data without the constraints of traditional form elements. Its focus on type safety and automatic JSON conversion is particularly appealing to developers looking for a smooth integration experience.
Type Safety: Ensures that the data structure is maintained consistently between the server and client, reducing runtime errors and enhancing reliability.
Automatic JSON Conversion: Automatically handles request and response JSON formatting, allowing for a more straightforward data exchange between server and client.
Schema Validation: Integrates schema validation for incoming data, ensuring that only properly formatted data reaches the server.
Zod Helper Function: Offers a handy helper function for Zod, a TypeScript-first schema declaration and validation library, streamlining the validation process.
Joi Helper Function: Includes a Joi helper function for schema validation, providing additional flexibility for developers who prefer this popular validation library.
Easy Installation: Can be installed quickly with your favorite package manager, making it accessible for developers looking to integrate it into their projects.
Minimal Setup: Requires only a few lines of code in a +server.ts file, simplifying the process of defining tasks and actions within your Svelte components.
