Build svelte components with test first aproach by using Jest and the Svelte Testing Library. We will see how we can query elements, how we can interact with them and also how we can replace external service without mocking.

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.

Recent updates and features in Svelte and SvelteKit, with a focus on Storybook for Svelte Part 3: Testing

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.

Routify 3 preview and walkthrough — app creation via CLI, plugin usage (Index By Name), Pico CSS integration, page ordering, and route metadata concepts. Build-time metadata generation, API data fetching (e.g., GitHub), Markdown-to-HTML conversion, dynamic routes and imports for SSR, navigation and multi-router features, and router state persistence.

Maurice de Beyer on building reliable Svelte applications using Cypress and test-driven development.

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.

Using Playwright for end-to-end testing in SvelteKit applications

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.
