RapidOwl / svelte-firebase

A template for getting up and running quickly with SvelteJS and Firebase.

Svelte + Firebase === Rapid Prototyping Joy

This is a project template to get you up and running quickly with Svelte and Firebase. Rapidly prototype to your heart's content without having to worry about building an API. Just build your front end in Svelte and let Firebase take care of the rest.

What this won't get you:

• Server side rendering. This is a SPA in the truest sense. If you want SSR go look at Sapper.
• A production ready app. There's a lot your bundles will need that likely require advanced Rollup config not to mention all sorts of other things that this template isn't concerned with.

To create a new project based on this template using degit.

npx degit rapidowl/svelte-firebase your-project-name
cd your-project-name

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

Get started

Install the dependencies...

cd svelte-app
npm install

...then start Rollup:

npm run dev

Navigate to localhost:5000. You should see your app running. Edit a component file in src, save it, and watch Rollup's hot module replacement provide you with joy.
