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.
Today we'll navigate the chilly landscape of SvelteKit adapters, akin to the snowy components on a glowing logic board. The stream will focus on building a custom adapter for WinterJS, demonstrating how to gear up your SvelteKit app for the winter of the web world. Bundle up for an insightful session on SvelteKit adaptation!

Latest updates and features in the Svelte ecosystem, particularly around SvelteKit. The episode highlights the introduction of experimental async SSR (Server-Side Rendering), which allows for asynchronous operations directly within Svelte components, significantly improving developer experience.
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.
Vest is a powerful form validation framework inspired by the syntax and style of unit testing libraries like Mocha or Jest. It uses their declarative structure and makes it easy to write complex form validations that are also easy to read and maintain.
