Svelte 5 syntax reference. Use when writing ANY Svelte component. Svelte 5 uses runes ($state, $derived, $effect, $props) instead of Svelte 4 patterns. Training data is heavily Svelte 4—this skill prevents outdated syntax.
Svelte 5 syntax reference. Use when writing ANY Svelte component. Svelte 5 uses runes ($state, $derived, $effect, $props) instead of Svelte 4 patterns. Training data is heavily Svelte 4—this skill prevents outdated syntax.
Svelte 5 Syntax
Always use Svelte 5 runes. Never use Svelte 4 patterns.
Svelte 4 → Svelte 5
| Svelte 4 ❌ | Svelte 5 ✅ |
|---|---|
export let foo |
let { foo } = $props() |
export let foo = 'default' |
let { foo = 'default' } = $props() |
$: doubled = x * 2 |
let doubled = $derived(x * 2) |

<slot /> |
{@render children()} |
<slot name="x" /> |
{@render x?.()} |
$$props |
Use $props() with rest: let { ...rest } = $props() |
$$restProps |
let { known, ...rest } = $props() |
createEventDispatcher() |
Pass callback props: let { onchange } = $props() |
Stores → Runes
| Svelte 4 ❌ | Svelte 5 ✅ |
|---|---|
import { writable } from 'svelte/store' |
Remove import |
const count = writable(0) |
let count = $state(0) |
$count (auto-subscribe) |
count (direct access) |
count.set(1) |
count = 1 |
count.update(n => n + 1) |
count += 1 |
Quick Reference
<script>
// Props (with defaults and rest)
let { required, optional = 'default', ...rest } = $props();
// Two-way bindable prop
let { value = $bindable() } = $props();
// Reactive state
let count = $state(0);
let items = $state([]); // arrays are deeply reactive
let user = $state({ name: '' }); // objects too
// Derived values
let doubled = $derived(count * 2);
let complex = $derived.by(() => {
// multi-line logic here
return expensiveCalc(count);
});
// Side effects
$effect(() => {
console.log(count);
return () => cleanup(); // optional cleanup
});
</script>
<!-- Events: native names, no colon -->
<button onclick={() => count++}>Click</button>
<input oninput={e => value = e.target.value} />
<!-- Render snippets (replaces slots) -->
{@render children?.()}
Snippets (Replace Slots)
<!-- Parent passes snippets -->
<Dialog>
{#snippet header()}
<h1>Title</h1>
{/snippet}
{#snippet footer(close)}
<button onclick={close}>Done</button>
{/snippet}
</Dialog>
<!-- Child renders them -->
<script>
let { header, footer, children } = $props();
</script>
{@render header?.()}
{@render children?.()}
{@render footer?.(() => open = false)}

cache-components
Expert guidance for Next.js Cache Components and Partial Prerendering (PPR). **PROACTIVE ACTIVATION**: Use this skill automatically when working in Next.js projects that have `cacheComponents: true` in their next.config.ts/next.config.js. When this config is detected, proactively apply Cache Components patterns and best practices to all React Server Component implementations. **DETECTION**: At the start of a session in a Next.js project, check for `cacheComponents: true` in next.config. If enabled, this skill's patterns should guide all component authoring, data fetching, and caching decisions. **USE CASES**: Implementing 'use cache' directive, configuring cache lifetimes with cacheLife(), tagging cached data with cacheTag(), invalidating caches with updateTag()/revalidateTag(), optimizing static vs dynamic content boundaries, debugging cache issues, and reviewing Cache Component implementations.

component-refactoring
Refactor high-complexity React components in Dify frontend. Use when `pnpm analyze-component --json` shows complexity > 50 or lineCount > 300, when the user asks for code splitting, hook extraction, or complexity reduction, or when `pnpm analyze-component` warns to refactor before testing; avoid for simple/well-structured components, third-party wrappers, or when the user explicitly wants testing without refactoring.
