  4. Copy the built component inside a vendor folder (accesible from index.html)
  5. Import the component from the HTML using the defer attribute
    <script defer src="vendor/svelte-custom-element.0.1.0.min.js"></script>
  6. Open the index.html and enjoy the web component

Why?

Building custom elements with Svelte is really easy but have a lot of limitations, is this template I'm trying to show the way I solve most of these limitations.

Svelte current limitations:

How does this template work?

The code of your component lives inside /src/index.svelte, this is the main point for either Storybook and the building process. It's important that this file has it's own style tag with content in it, otherwise we cannot inject the styles of your app inside the shadow DOM of the custom element. (read the build script)

The global styles for your Svelte component lives inside /src/index.scss (concretely inside the class component-styles-wrapper which is the root class), this file is important because we turn it into compiled CSS and inject it to Storybook so you can have global styles in all your stories without the need to duplicate this styles.

Available scripts

  • start: alias of yarn storybook
  • build: builds your app as a web component and outputs a minified and a normal version to /dist
  • storybook: runs the storybook, this is used when develop because of the live reloading
  • test: runs all test inside src/ and tries to build the widget
