Write svelte for your liquid templates.
Liquivelte is an innovative tool that revolutionizes the way you create your Shopify themes by integrating Svelte-like components into the mix. Designed as a preprocessor, it smoothly converts Liquid templates and manages an efficient rollup build process in the background. By doing so, it creates the necessary JavaScript, CSS, and Liquid content to enable server-side rendering (SSR) for your data. This plugin is a great solution for developers looking to harness the power of SvelteJS while maintaining their existing theme structure.
The beauty of Liquivelte lies in its versatility and the way it manages file changes, allowing you to include multiple Svelte components seamlessly in your themes. Whether you’re including snippets or managing complex layout structures, this tool ensures that both performance and scalability are at the forefront of your developments.
Efficient Bundling: Generates JS and CSS per file for every template/layout, enabling two entry points for optimized loading.
Dynamic Imports: Easily convert import statements into prop imports for main components, leveraging the same data to generate Liquid content.
Seamless Snippet Integration: Utilize the {% include 'liquivelte', module: '[module_name]' %} syntax to include snippets effortlessly within your templates.
Liquid Object Flexibility: Import JSON serializable Liquid objects, allowing for complex data handling and manipulation with simple syntax.
Control Flow Capabilities: Supports standard Liquid control flow tags, enabling robust logic within your themes, like conditionals and loops.
Form Handling: Capable of including forms with specific types and props, enhancing user interactions.
Near-Universal Compatibility: While there are limitations, the overall functionality integrates smoothly with existing theme structures, allowing for creative flexibility.
