Join us for the last few Svelte Summit videos where you'll learn about i18n and preprocessors!

Svelte has been described as an “accessibility-first-framework”, yet its compiler warnings cover only a fragment of the issues at hand. In this talk, I’d like to explore how accessible Svelte really is and more importantly, have a look at what you can do to bridge the gap. Ideas include checking both automatically and manually for issues the compiler might overlook, like color contrast, keyboard accessibility and semantics.

Creating effective and unique data visualizations for news websites requires sophisticated tools. In fact, Svelte is currently becoming a gold standard tool to build interactive graphics for the world’s newsrooms. Why is that and what is so special about Svelte? Come and let’s go on a behind-the-scenes walk into the machine room of a modern interactive data visualization.

Svelte includes built-in animations that makes it easy to slide, scale, and fly elements in and out of the DOM. However, you need to be careful to not trigger motion sickness in your users. I will go over which Svelte transitions could cause accessibility issues and how to respect user motion preferences when using them.

A demo on how to setup internationalization in a SvelteKit project using the lightweight library typesafe-i18n.

Svelte is not just a JavaScript compiler. It is a way of thinking to design complex data visualizations. Come with me on a journey through one of my recent Svelte data visualization works.

Domenik Reitzner had a dialog with his brave audience about the dialog element and how to integrate it with Svelte. He showed us the benefits of using the platform and what a11y(accessibility) benefits come out of the box, by using this HTML element.

A developer's journey with Svelte, showcasing the creation of Eleftable, a survey application for data visualization. Visualization of candidate electability and likeability, with emphasis on technical implementation, user engagement goals, and potential expansion.

The video explains skip links, which are used to improve web navigation efficiency. Skip links allow users to jump directly to the main content or other key sections of a webpage when using a keyboard or screen reader.

This is a short introduction of the talk2svelte library which provides voice recognition and voice synthesis for Svelte, thanks to the Web Speech API. It allows to interact with a Svelte site by voice, like navigating or clicking on elements.
