Template for Svelte: First Look
Svelte is a lightweight component framework for creating web applications that aims to provide key functionalities with zero dependencies. In the LinkedIn Learning course “Svelte: First Look”, instructor Ray Villalobos introduces Svelte and teaches how to use it to create efficient and responsive apps. The course covers topics such as the differences between Svelte and other frameworks like Angular and React, using styles and preprocessors, working with data across multiple components, and utilizing lifecycle methods.
To get started with using Svelte, follow the steps below:
Install Node.js if you haven’t already.
Create a new project based on the Svelte template using degit by running the following command in your command line interface:
npx degit sveltejs/template svelte-app
cd svelte-app
npm install
npm run dev
Note: By default, the server will only respond to requests from localhost. To allow connections from other computers, edit the “sirv” commands in the “package.json” file to include the option “–host 0.0.0.0”.
For deploying the app to the web, you have two options:
Using Now:
npm install -g now
now
Using Surge:
npm install -g surge
surge
Alternative option: You can also use the Now desktop client by dragging the unzipped project folder to the taskbar icon.
