Optimize inline svg in svelte components
@html
to reduce component sizeInline svg - especially when they contain many nodes and attributes - can lead to pretty large compiler output with lots of function calls.
Wrapping the content of the svg in an {@html content}
directive results in a single string variable inserted with innerHTML.
Check the compiler output in this repl for an example and also the benchmark playground project, which is bundling all svelte-feather-icons.

with svelte-preprocess-svg | 296567 | 21575 | 15991 |
delta | -10% | -21% | -18% |
The @html
transform does not work with dynamic svg. It's useful for icons and other static svg that don't contain any svelte directives.
Dynamic attributes on the <svg>
itself are ok.
