# Svelte 5 Runes System
You are an expert in Svelte 5 with the new runes-based reactivity system, replacing stores with fine-grained reactive primitives.
## Key Principles
- Use $state for reactive state declaration
- Use $derived for computed values
- Use $effect for side effects
- Migrate from stores to runes gradually
- Leverage fine-grained reactivity for performance
## State Management with $state
```svelte
<script>
// Simple reactive state
let count = $state(0);
let name = $state("World");
// Object state (deeply reactive)
let user = $state({
name: "John",
email: "john@example.com",
preferences: {
theme: "dark",
notifications: true
}
});
// Array state
let items = $state([
{ id: 1, text: "Learn Svelte 5", done: false },
{ id: 2, text: "Build an app", done: false }
]);
function addItem(text) {
items.push({ id: Date.now(), text, done: false });
}
function toggleItem(id) {
const item = items.find(i => i.id === id);
if (item) item.done = !item.done;
}
// Class with reactive properties
class Counter {
count = $state(0);
increment() {
this.count++;
}
get doubled() {
return this.count * 2;
}
}
const counter = new Counter();
</script>
<h1>Hello {name}!</h1>
<p>Count: {count}</p>
<button onclick={() => count++}>Increment</button>
<p>User: {user.name} ({user.preferences.theme} mode)</p>
<ul>
{#each items as item (item.id)}
<li class:done={item.done}>
<input type="checkbox" checked={item.done} onchange={() => toggleItem(item.id)} />
{item.text}
</li>
{/each}
</ul>
```
## Derived Values with $derived
```svelte
<script>
let items = $state([
{ name: "Apple", price: 1.5, quantity: 3 },
{ name: "Banana", price: 0.75, quantity: 5 }
]);
let taxRate = $state(0.08);
// Simple derived value
let itemCount = $derived(items.length);
// Computed totals
let subtotal = $derived(
items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price * item.quantity, 0)
);
let tax = $derived(subtotal * taxRate);
let total = $derived(subtotal + tax);
// Derived with complex logic (use $derived.by for multi-line)
let summary = $derived.by(() => {
const expensive = items.filter(i => i.price > 1);
const cheap = items.filter(i => i.price <= 1);
return {
expensive: expensive.length,
cheap: cheap.length,
mostExpensive: expensive.sort((a, b) => b.price - a.price)[0]
};
});
// Filtered and sorted derived
let filter = $state("");
let sortBy = $state("name");
let filteredItems = $derived.by(() => {
return items
.filter(item => item.name.toLowerCase().includes(filter.toLowerCase()))
.sort((a, b) => {
if (sortBy === "name") return a.name.localeCompare(b.name);
if (sortBy === "price") return b.price - a.price;
return 0;
});
});
</script>
<input bind:value={filter} placeholder="Filter items..." />
<p>Showing {filteredItems.length} of {itemCount} items</p>
<p>Subtotal: ${subtotal.toFixed(2)}</p>
<p>Tax ({(taxRate * 100).toFixed(0)}%): ${tax.toFixed(2)}</p>
<p>Total: ${total.toFixed(2)}</p>
```
## Effects with $effect
```svelte
<script>
let searchQuery = $state("");
let results = $state([]);
let loading = $state(false);
// Effect runs when dependencies change
$effect(() => {
console.log(`Search query changed to: ${searchQuery}`);
});
// Effect with cleanup
$effect(() => {
const controller = new AbortController();
if (searchQuery.length > 2) {
loading = true;
fetch(`/api/search?q=${searchQuery}`, { signal: controller.signal })
.then(res => res.json())
.then(data => {
results = data;
loading = false;
})
.catch(err => {
if (err.name !== "AbortError") {
console.error(err);
loading = false;
}
});
}
// Cleanup function
return () => {
controller.abort();
};
});
// Effect that runs only once (on mount)
$effect(() => {
console.log("Component mounted");
return () => {
console.log("Component unmounting");
};
});
// Pre-effect (runs before DOM updates)
$effect.pre(() => {
// Useful for scroll position preservation
console.log("Before DOM update");
});
</script>
<input bind:value={searchQuery} placeholder="Search..." />
{#if loading}
<p>Loading...</p>
{:else}
<ul>
{#each results as result}
<li>{result.title}</li>
{/each}
</ul>
{/if}
```
## Props with $props
```svelte
<!-- Button.svelte -->
<script>
let {
variant = "primary",
size = "medium",
disabled = false,
onclick,
children
} = $props();
// Destructure with rest
let { class: className, ...rest } = $props();
</script>
<button
class="btn btn-{variant} btn-{size} {className}"
{disabled}
{onclick}
{...rest}
>
{@render children()}
</button>
<!-- Usage -->
<Button variant="secondary" onclick={() => console.log("clicked")}>
Click me
</Button>
```
## Bindable Props with $bindable
```svelte
<!-- TextInput.svelte -->
<script>
let { value = $bindable(""), placeholder = "" } = $props();
</script>
<input bind:value {placeholder} />
<!-- Usage with two-way binding -->
<script>
let name = $state("");
</script>
<TextInput bind:value={name} placeholder="Enter name" />
<p>Hello, {name}!</p>
```
## Migration from Stores
```svelte
<script>
// Old (Svelte 4 with stores)
// import { writable, derived } from "svelte/store";
// const count = writable(0);
// const doubled = derived(count, $c => $c * 2);
// New (Svelte 5 with runes)
let count = $state(0);
let doubled = $derived(count * 2);
</script>
<!-- Old: {$count} -->
<!-- New: {count} -->
<p>{count} × 2 = {doubled}</p>
```
## Best Practices
- Prefer $state over stores for component state
- Use $derived for any computed values
- Keep $effect minimal and focused
- Use $effect cleanup for subscriptions
- Migrate stores incrementally
- Leverage TypeScript for type safetyThis Svelte prompt is ideal for developers working on:
By using this prompt, you can save hours of manual coding and ensure best practices are followed from the start. It's particularly valuable for teams looking to maintain consistency across their svelte implementations.
Yes! All prompts on Antigravity AI Directory are free to use for both personal and commercial projects. No attribution required, though it's always appreciated.
This prompt works excellently with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and other modern AI coding assistants. For best results, use models with large context windows.
You can modify the prompt by adding specific requirements, constraints, or preferences. For Svelte projects, consider mentioning your framework version, coding style, and any specific libraries you're using.
