Description
Svelte is a modern JavaScript framework used to build static web apps
that are fast and lean, as well as being fun for developers to use. This
book is a concise and practical introduction for those who are new to
the Svelte framework which will have you up to speed with building apps
quickly, and teach you how to use Svelte 3 to build apps that offer a
great app user experience (UX).
The book starts with an introduction to Svelte 3, before showing you how
to set up your first complete application with the framework. Filled
with code samples, each chapter will show you how to write components
using the Svelte template syntax and the application programming
interfaces (APIs) of the Svelte framework. As you advance, you'll go
from scaffolding your project and tool setup all the way through to
production with DevOps principles such as automated testing, continuous
integration, and continuous delivery (CI/CD). Finally, you'll deploy
your application in the cloud with object storage services and a content
delivery network (CDN) for best-in-class performance for your users.
By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to build and deploy
apps using Svelte 3 to solve real-world problems and deliver impressive
results.
