SvelTail

This is a project built using Svelte, TailwindCSS, and TypeScript. Its' indended purpose is to give you an area to play with TailwindCSS classes so that you can easily create a unique look for your TailwindCSS website.

Note that you will need to have Node.js installed.

Get started

Install the dependencies...

yarn install

...then start Snowpack:

yarn dev

Navigate to localhost:8080. You should see your app running. Edit a component file in src, save it, and reload the page to see your changes.

By default, the server will only respond to requests from localhost. To allow connections from other computers, edit the sirv commands in package.json to include the option --host 0.0.0.0.

If you're using Visual Studio Code we recommend installing the official extension Svelte for VS Code. If you are using other editors you may need to install a plugin in order to get syntax highlighting and intellisense.

Building and running in production mode

To create an optimised version of the app:

yarn build

You can run the newly built app with yarn start. This uses sirv, which is included in your package.json's dependencies so that the app will work when you deploy to platforms like Heroku.

Single-page app mode

By default, sirv will only respond to requests that match files in public. This is to maximise compatibility with static fileservers, allowing you to deploy your app anywhere.

If you're building a single-page app (SPA) with multiple routes, sirv needs to be able to respond to requests for any path. You can make it so by editing the "start" command in package.json:

"start": "sirv public --single"
