Basic Svelte template with Yarn Plug'n'Play feature

This is a template for scaffolding Svelte apps. This template is basically a copy of the sveltejs/template to which I added the Yarn Plug'n'Play feature.

This means no more node_modules with hundred of megabytes in each of your projects and it is so much faster. Pure Awesomeness!

Getting started

To create a new project based on this template, you can use degit, a straightforward project scaffolding tool writtent by Rich Harris, the Svelte author. Go check it out, You'll be impressed.

Note that you will need to have Node.js v8+ installed to use degit.

Create your project:

npx degit laplix/svelte-template-yarn-pnp your-svelte-app

Alternatively, you can install degit on your machine and use it like such:

npm install -g degit
degit laplix/svelte-template-yarn-pnp your-svelte-app

Install the dependencies...

cd your-svelte-app
yarn

...then start the development server using Rollup (a module bundler also written by Ricj Harris):

yarn dev

Navigate to localhost:5000. You should see your app running.

Start coding:

Edit the main.js file in src, replace the name property with your app name, save it, and you should see your change reflected immediately in your browser.

Now, edit src/app.svelte and add the following under the <h1> header:

<h2>Welcome to my new app</h2>

Save it. Again, you should see the change in the brpwser.

Happy coding...

If your new to Svelte, I strongly suggest the Svelte tutorial which will get you up to speed rapidly. Alos, a visit to svelte examples and the Svelte API will also help you a lot.
