sveltekit-blog-mdx VS svelte-material-ui

If its just a blog, and your not talking 1000s of entries, I'd recommend using https://github.com/rodneylab/sveltekit-blog-mdx

SvelteKit plus mdsvex. There are quite a few examples out there, e.g. https://github.com/rodneylab/sveltekit-blog-mdx.

We will run through using the SvelteKit MDsveX starter but if you already have a SvelteKit site, it might make more since for you to follow along but working on a test branch of your own site. If you are using the starter, let’s get going by cloning it locally:

In this post we see how you can modify a Svelte blog site to respond to some Vim keyboard shortcuts. We'll clone the SvelteKit Blog MDsveX Starter to get things going quicker. Then we will create a new component for responding to keyboard shortcuts and add that to the existing blog post template. If you are not yet familiar with SvelteKit, you can still follow along. If you don't like Svelte then the code can also be adapted for use on React or plain HTML/JavaScript sites. Why don't we press on?

We'll start with the SvelteKit MDsveX starter and add a responsive image to the home page. We will see how you can generate a low resolution placeholder as well as an alternative dominant colour placeholder. We will generate a WebP Next-Gen format image together with the original JPEG in different sizes so the image looks good on large retina displays without having to download a huge image for small mobile displays. Using the placeholders, we will eliminate image layout shift.

I have just added PWA functionality to the MDsveX starter. All you need to do is customise the website configuration file with with site's name and theme colours, then run a script to generate all the different icon sizes automatically. Here is exactly what you need to do in five simple steps. If you are looking for a more general SvelteKit Tutorial or how to get started with SvelteKit I have a couple of posts you will appreciate.

We will return to SchemaOrg in more detail. To start though, let's take a look at more general SEO metadata and then Twitter metadata. If you are starting a new site clone the SvelteKit MDsveX starter and follow along. Alternatively you can follow along and paste the code snippets into your own project.

If you are completely new to SvelteKit, it might be worth skimming through my recent post on Getting Started with SvelteKit, which will give you a head-start. That said I have built the starter to help you get up to speed quicker if you are still discovering SvelteKit. In this post I outline some key features. If you're more of a hands on person, just crack open the Sveltekit Blog Starter repo and start playing!

Sveltematerialui (SMUI): GitHub: https://github.com/hperrin/svelte-material-ui SMUI is a Svelte wrapper for Material-UI, which is one of the most popular Material Design libraries. It provides a collection of components that follow the Material Design guidelines and can be easily integrated into Svelte projects.

What about https://github.com/hperrin/svelte-material-ui?

For material UI you can use: https://sveltematerialui.com. It works fine although my experience with it is minimal. For tailwind you can run npx svelte-add tailwindcss.

As I mentioned at the beginning of this article, we’re using Svelte Material UI. To install it in our project, we have to first add it to our dependencies:

I know everyone loves Tailwind; I do too. However, there are too many things we take for granted with Material Design. Try and add a simple Date Picker to a Svelte Project. The Materialify project was abandoned (as well as the potential re-write SvelterialJS). The Svelte Material UI hasn't been updated in months, has poor documentation, and may well be on its way to be abandoned as well. Angular Material is well supported by Goodle, React MUI is in the process of getting updated, and so is Vuetify. SolidJS just built a translator for React MUI, and I think it is buggy and doesn't support Solid Start yet. Vercel should donate $$ monthly to support Svelte Material UI. It also needs to add components outside of Material Web (like Datepicker) that the Vue, Angular, and React alternatives support. Material UI is the standard for a reason. Another option would be to find a good translator like Mitosis, but I don't see that happening in this case. That being said, there are some alpha and beta UI Frameworks worth looking at like Skelton and SvelteUI (based on Tailwind). https://sveltematerialui.com/ https://www.skeleton.dev/ https://www.svelteui.org/

The issues I've seen with SMUI have to do with TypeScript support (example), but these should be solved in the upcoming release 7.0.

HI all! I am looking for a good Material UI framework to use with Sveltekit! I have been trying to use SMUI from sveltematerialui.com, however it seems to cause tons of issues and the github issues don't seem to want to fix many of them, it seems like it isn't fully prod ready. I have looked at materialify, it seems good, however it hasn't been updated in the past 12 months, so I am not sure about the status of that. Option 3 would be me making all styles myself.... but that is quite a bit of work and I would like to have something working before the end of the month. Does anyone have any good alternatives to these? I have looked into Google's material libs, but they seem geared towards react and I am not sure if I want to mix things up that much. There must be matieral only CSS libs around that will play well with Tailwind, but I haven't had much luck finding anything (open source) that works well.

I'm using SMUI- the Svelte Material UI inspired by the design on Google sites and Android.
