What's new in Svelte: March 2021 | Call for Svelte Summit Speakers! Improved SSR, non-HTML5 compilation targets, and ESLint TypeScript support | Daniel Sandoval | https://desandoval.net |
Lots to cover this month with releases from across the Svelte ecosystem. Most importantly, Svelte Summit Spring 2021 has an Open Call for Speakers. The deadline is March 14 so if you have an idea for a talk, submit it now!
Let's dive into the news 🐬
What's new in sveltejs/svelte
- SSR store handling has been reworked to subscribe and unsubscribe as in DOM mode. SSR stores should work much more consistently now (3.31.2, see custom stores and Server-side component API )
- Multiple instances of the same action are now allowed on an element (3.32.0, example)
- The new
foreign
namespace should make it easier for alternative compile targets (like Svelte Native and SvelteGUI) by disabling certain HTML5-specific behaviour and checks (3.32.0, more info) - Support for inline comment sourcemaps in code from preprocessors (3.32.0)
- Destructured defaults are now allowed to refer to other variables (3.33.0, example)
- Custom elements will now call
onMount
functions when connecting and clean up when disconnecting (3.33.0, checkout this PR for an interesting conversation on how folks are using Svelte with Web Components) - A
cssHash
option has been added to the compiler options to control the classname used for CSS scoping (3.34.0, docs) - Continued improvement to Typescript definitions

New from sveltejs/language-tools
- For language server clients that don't support
didChangeWatchedFiles
, a fallback file watcher will be used instead - New highlighting rules for store accessors and element directives (like
bind:
andclass:
) - HTML tags can now be renamed together
- Mustache tags parsing is now more robust and will provide better intellisense in more situations
