What's new in Svelte: February 2024 New in Kit: `reroute`, `emulate` and more! Dani Sandoval https://dreamindani.com

Since SvelteKit 2.0 released late last year, there's been a bunch of new features to make the Kit dev experience even better! Meanwhile the Svelte team has been hard at work making Svelte 5 a reality.

In case you missed it, Rich also posted Tenets, "an attempt to articulate the Svelte philosophy — our bedrock principles, that guide our design decisions."

So let's dive in to check out what's new and see what the rest of the community has been up to...

What's new in SvelteKit

  • The client router is now tree shakeable (2.1.0, #11340)
  • $env/static/public is now exposed in service workers (2.2.0, Docs, #10994)
  • style-src-elem is now supported in environments with a Content Security Policy (2.2.1, Docs, #11562)
  • The new reroute hook allows you to change how URLs are translated into routes (2.3.0, Docs, #11537)
  • The read function is now available in the $app/server module - allowing you to read assets from the filesystem (2.4.0, Docs, #11649)
  • Adapters can now emulate the prod environment for dev and preview servers by implementing the corresponding functions. This is useful for providing access to e.g. KV namespaces in development (2.5.0, Docs, #11730)

What's new in Svelte

In case you missed it, Svelte 5 is in preview. In the meantime, Svelte 4 (@latest) has had one bugfix release. There's just one new feature to highlight from the Svelte 5 changelog:

  • Snippets can now take multiple arguments (5.0.0-next.42, Docs, #9988)

For all the bug fixes, chores and underlying work required to get Svelte 5 to release-ready, check out the CHANGELOG on main.
