What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
I'm most proud of successfully implementing my first Svelte project and creating a responsive design that closely matches the original design. The component structure turned out clean and reusable, and I'm particularly happy with how I used TypeScript to add type safety to the project.
If I were to do this project again, I would try to use Storybook, because a definitely didn't understand how it works.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?The biggest challenges I faced were:
- Learning Svelte's syntax and reactivity model: Coming from React, I had to adjust to Svelte's different approach. I overcame this by carefully reading the documentation and following tutorial examples.
- Setting up Tailwind with SvelteKit: Initially, I struggled with the configuration. I solved this by studying the Tailwind documentation specifically for Svelte integration and experimenting until I got it working correctly.
- TypeScript integration: Adding proper types for dynamic data was challenging. I had to learn about TypeScript's type assertions and keyof operator to properly type the category styles mapping.
- Responsive design issues: The layout would break at certain viewport sizes. I solved this by using Tailwind's responsive utilities more effectively and testing on various screen sizes throughout development.
- Component props spreading: I wasn't familiar with how to pass all properties of an object to a component in Svelte. After some research, I discovered the spread syntax works similarly to React but with Svelte's own implementation details.
I would appreciate feedback on:
- Component structure: Is my component breakdown logical and reusable? Should I have split any components further or combined any?
- TypeScript implementation: I'm not sure if my approach to typing the category styles is the most efficient. Is there a better way to handle dynamic object keys with TypeScript?
- CSS organization: I used Tailwind classes directly in the components. Would it be better to extract some common styles into separate CSS files or use Tailwind's @apply directive?
- Performance optimization: Are there any performance improvements I could make, especially regarding how I'm processing and transforming the data?
- Accessibility: I tried to make the component accessible, but I'd appreciate a review of my semantic HTML structure and ARIA attributes to ensure I'm following best practices.
- Animation: I'd like to add subtle animations when the component loads or when hovering over items. Any suggestions on how to implement this effectively in Svelte?
