Overview

The svelte-spa-router is a router specifically designed for Svelte 3 and 4 applications, with optimization for Single Page Applications (SPAs). It utilizes hash-based routing, providing a simple and lightweight solution for navigation within SPAs without requiring server-side processing. This module is released under the MIT license and is compatible with modern browsers.

Features

• Hash-based Routing: Leverages hash-based routing for navigation within SPAs, eliminating the need for server-side processing and enabling easy sharing of links.
• Easy to Use: Designed with simplicity in mind, making it easy for developers to implement and integrate into their Svelte applications.
• Minimal Footprint: Built with a minimal footprint, ensuring that the router does not add unnecessary overhead to the application.
• Parameter Support: Utilizes the regexparam library for parsing routes, allowing for the inclusion of parameters in the URLs, such as /book/:id.

Installation

To include the svelte-spa-router in your Svelte project, follow these steps:

1. Install the module from NPM:

   npm install svelte-spa-router
   

2. Define your routes as Svelte components, with each component representing a specific page or view in your SPA.

3. Create an instance of the router in your main application component.

4. Initialize the router by specifying the routes and their corresponding components.

5. Use the <Router> component to render the appropriate component based on the current URL.

6. Optionally, define any parameterized routes using the /:parameter syntax.

7. Build and run your Svelte application.

Summary

The svelte-spa-router is a router specifically designed for Svelte 3 and 4 applications, with optimization for Single Page Applications. It offers hash-based routing, easy integration, minimal footprint, and support for parameterized routes. By utilizing this router, developers can efficiently handle navigation within their SPAs without the need for server-side processing.
