Question 1

How to set up nested routes in Svelte Routing?

Accepted Answer

You can nest Router components within your application structure. Define a parent Router and include child Routers for specific sections, enabling modular route composition as supported in the API.

Question 2

Svelte Routing vs SvelteKit routing: which one should I use?

Accepted Answer

Svelte Routing is a standalone library for custom Svelte SPAs, while SvelteKit has built-in file-based routing. Choose Svelte Routing if you prefer declarative components and aren't using SvelteKit; otherwise, SvelteKit's routing is more integrated and feature-rich.

Question 3

How to handle 404 pages with Svelte Routing?

Accepted Answer

Add a Route component without a path property as the default route at the end of your route definitions. This will match any unmatched URLs and render a custom 404 component.

Question 4

Can I use Svelte Routing with TypeScript?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it should work with TypeScript as it's a standard Svelte library, but you might need to rely on community type definitions or manual declarations since official types aren't highlighted in the README.

Question 5

How to pass query parameters in Svelte Routing?

Accepted Answer

Query parameters aren't directly handled in the core API. You'll need to access them via browser APIs like URLSearchParams or extend the library, as the focus is on path parameters through props.

Question 6

Is Svelte Routing good for SEO with SSR?

Accepted Answer

Yes, its built-in SSR support via the url prop allows server-rendered content, improving SEO. However, you must correctly configure the server-side rendering setup to leverage this benefit.
