Introducing Sveltechron
A Devtool For Svelte
What is Svelte?
Svelte is a modern, open-source JavaScript framework that’s all about simplifying web application development. Unlike well-known frameworks like React and Vue, Svelte offers a fresh approach with three key features: less code, no virtual DOM, and genuine reactivity. It encourages developers to write concise, readable code with a user-friendly TypeScript-based syntax. What sets Svelte apart is that it doesn’t rely on a virtual DOM; instead, it compiles into a lightweight JavaScript file, resulting in quicker performance. This unique approach streamlines application development, eliminates complex state management, and reduces code clutter, making it an exciting choice for web developers.
So what is Sveltechron?
Sveltechron is a chrome devtool which enables Svelte developers to visualize front-end code and quickly understand state and prop changes throughout their client application
Features
Component hierarchy visualization
Sveltechron creates a tree structure of the applications component hierarchy. This allows for a greater understanding of the applications structure. This incredibly useful when digging through a larger scale application containing a big amount of components.
State and Props Display
When inspecting one of the components nodes in Sveltechron, users are also able to view the state and props are held in the selected component. this allows for an easy understanding of the data flow of the users application.
