Conventions When Editing Svelte Code

All code must use Svelte 5.

Svelte MCP Server

ALWAYS use the Svelte MCP server tools when working with Svelte code:

1. Call list-sections first to understand available documentation
2. Use get-documentation to fetch relevant Svelte 5 docs for your task
3. Call svelte-autofixer to validate and fix components before sending code to the user

If you don't have access to the MCP server, tell the user that they should enable it.

State

• Use svelte 5 runes for all state management (e.g. $state and $derived).
• Any complex state should be wrapped in a class with methods used to manipulate. For example:

class ProductPricing {
    #pax: number = $state(0);
    #single_rooms: number = $state(0);
    #room_price: number;
    #single_supplement: number;

    readonly price: number;

    constructor(room_price: number, single_supplement: number) {
        this.#room_price = room_price;
        this.#single_supplement = single_supplement;
    
        this.price = $derived(this.room_price * this.pax + this.single_supplement * this.single_rooms);
    }

    get single_rooms() {
        return this.pax;
    }

    set single_rooms(new_rooms: number) {
        // Don't allow more rooms than people
        this.#single_rooms = Math.max(Math.min(new_rooms, this.#pax), 0);
    }
}

Components

Typing Props

• Prefer interface Props over type Props when typing component props.
• The correct way to use the props types is: const { ...props }: Props = $props(), destructuring the values you need.
• Example:

interface Props {
    value: number;
    onchange?: (new_value: number) => void;
}

const { value, onchange }: Props = $props();

Styling

• Use modern, conventional CSS. Never use tailwind.
• Make use of CSS nesting.
• Divs used to layout their contents have the class .layout by convention.
