  4. Navigate to localhost:3000 to see your components live.

Preprocessors

All preprocessing is handled with svelte-preprocess. Configure it in svelte.config.js.

Testing

Interaction testing

This is a simple and intuitive method that can be done through Storybook, with the help of Cypress. And example and pre-made test scripts can be found in this repository, and more info can be found in Storybook's docs.

Snapshot testing

In this repo you'll find a basic workflow that uses Chromatic for snapshot testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the index.js file for?

It's for Svelte to be able to import multiple components from a single source.

For instance, it lets the user do:

import { MyComponent, MyOtherComponent } from 'my-component-library';

Instead of:

import MyComponent from 'my-component-library/components/MyComponent.svelte';
import MyOtherComponent from 'my-component-library/components/MyOtherComponent';

How do I include 3'rd party css in my components?

There are a few options to do this:

  1. Don't include 3'rd party css and just tell your users to do that (Probably using PostCSS).
  2. Include it via a cdn, like so:
@import url('https://unpkg.com/@scope/package/main.min.css');

Publishing to npm

  1. Prepare the package for publishing:
npm run package
  1. Publish the package:
cd package
npm run publish
