To try Svelte in an interactive online environment you can try [the REPL](https://svelte.dev/repl) or [StackBlitz](https://node.new/svelte).

To create a project locally, run:

```
npm create vite@latest myapp -- --template svelte
cd myapp
npm install
npm run dev
```

Or use [SvelteKit](https://kit.svelte.dev/), the official application framework from the Svelte team (currently in release candidate status).

The Svelte team maintains a [VS Code extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=svelte.svelte-vscode) and the Svelte community has created a list of integrations with various other [tooling and editors](https://sveltesociety.dev/tools).

If you're having trouble, get help on [Discord](https://svelte.dev/chat) or [StackOverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/svelte).
