```svelte
```
This element allows you to add attributes and event listeners to the `` root (i.e. `document.documentElement`). This is useful for attributes such as `lang` which influence how the browser interprets the content.
```svelte
```
> [!NOTE] If you use SvelteKit version 2.13 or higher (and have `%svelte.htmlAttributes%` on the `` tag in `app.html`), the attributes will automatically be server rendered and hydrated correctly. If you're using a custom server rendering setup, you can retrieve the server-rendered attributes string via `htmlAttributes` from the `render` method response and inject it into your HTML manually.
This element may only appear the top level of your component and must never be inside a block or element.
