routify VS svelte-query

Been using Routify in all my projects since I started with Svelte like 3-4 years ago.

Anyway, it seems you have a problem with Sveltekit routing. You can still use Svelte with other SSR frameworks, such as Astro, a router like https://routify.dev, or switch to another framework altogether.

Routify is still active and new version in the works. Version 3 can be used https://github.com/roxiness/routify/tree/next

I would have to say Svelte with a router like https://routify.dev . My recent blog post originally used sveltekit but I swapped it out last minute

Consider https://github.com/roxiness/routify

Regarding some suggestions on here recommending SvelteKit: Learning SvelteKit might be a big ask depending on what you're trying to do. If you just want to stick with svelte only for now, and you want to add SPA routing capabilities, consider checking out https://routify.dev there's a ton of documentation for it and it's fairly simple to pick up. ✌🏼

Routing: We have a few third party ones such as routify, svelte-spa-router and svelte-routing as well as the clientside routers included in SvelteKit and Sapper.

if Next.js/Nuxt like needs are not something you're looking for yet, you can definitely go ahead with Svelte's default client-side app approach, with svelte-spa-router or routify for SPAs.

We chose Routify for client-side routing because this was around the time that Sapper seemed like it was being sunset in favor of Sveltekit which doesn't seem production-ready quite yet. We also have plans to statically pre-render the app so it can more-or-less work entirely offline and Routify makes that relatively straightforward (but see below).

Since svelte does a lot of compile time stuff, I would like to mention Routify, which is compile time SPA routing. For me it worked awesome to accomplish projects with many routes and the need for hash based routing.

See https://routify.dev/ and https://routify.dev/guide/installation/install-to-existing-p...

Nice I was waiting for this! I'm using the old implementation: https://sveltequery.vercel.app/

I'm aware there's another Svelte Query here but it seems like it is not maintained and will be incorporated into Tanstack Query.

Until then I use Svelte Query

I like React Query so I would be excited to use this however it doesn't seem ready for Svelte given the docs "Coming Soon" and Svelte Query being relatively unmaintained.

Svelte Query :)

Or just use svelte-query and toss that observable junk to the side.

Exactly. That's the big thing I want to work on next. Not sure whether to use Svelte Query or manually cache the data. In an ideal scenario all the API calls are cached because if two users hit the site at the same time, for instance, there's no need to request the same data twice. This is getting to the edge of my skillset but psyched to try to learn this part.

That's it. Nothing highly sophisticated. It is mostly the tech I enjoy and I think is valuable in the future. There are also other libraries I really enjoy, like XState and React Query (there is also Svelte Query). Just to mention a few.

Caching: svelte-query, sswr
