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

A weekly Svelte update from February 2024 covering changelog highlights, community showcase featuring Paraglide JS for internationalization, and discussions about Svelte 5 progress.

Matthias tweeted a 20 line of code i18n library with Svelte and it went semi-viral: https://twitter.com/h_i_g_s_c_h/status/1344223132308164616

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

If you are building a Single-Page App (SPA), you will likely need a router for your app. With the lack of an official router for Svelte 3, there's quite a few options, so which one should you pick? In this talk, we'll look at the two different kinds of routers (based on the History API or based on the page's hash), how they differ, and when you should pick which. We'll also go through a demo of implementing routing for a Svelte 3 SPA using svelte-spa-router.

Authentication Server-Side Rendered Single-Page Apps can be difficult. Antony looks to break down the simplest possible way of providing full SSR compatible authentication with JWT

Learn how to integrate FaunaDB into a SvelteKit application, featuring Shadid Haque from Fauna, hosted by Brittney Postma.

Brittney and Madz be checking out how to kickstart your Design System with Backlight.dev and how to use Svelte with it.

It's no secret that design systems are a popular topic. Eric Liu created Carbon Components Svelte along with Sveld (a docgen library for Svelte components). Brittney sits down to ask about pain points, tooling, and lessons learned from building one of the first component libraries for Svelte 3 and one that is open sourced by a big tech company.

The video introduces the Svelte Site Generator (SSG), a zero-configuration overlay for Sapper focused on static site generation.

Inlang: a solution for internationalization in SvelteKit projects. The SDK and its tools simplify setup, language negotiation, and content management. This approach automates i18n processes, offering a user-friendly experience for developers and translators.

Paraglide-JS comes with two main innovations that make Paraglide JS the simplest, most efficient, and typesafe i18n library for SvelteKit. 1. A compiler (sounds familiar?) emits message functions instead of key-value runtime lookup logic. 2. The message functions are tree-shakable, leading to auto optimization by the bundler.
