NICAR25: First SvelteKit data app

Here's all the code you'll need to get up and running for the NICAR 2025 session on building a SvelteKit data app.

This project uses:

• SvelteKit: UI framework, which handles the routing, code organization, and build steps
• Tailwind: Provides CSS utility classes to make the styling simple
• TheCatAPI: Provides our sample data and images
• The Noun Project: Provides cat icon

Getting started

In the home directory, run a standard install to get the project's dependencies.

npm install

After that, start a development server:

npm run dev

# or start the server and open the app in a new browser tab
npm run dev -- --open

Building

To create a production version of your app:

npm run build

You can preview the production build with npm run preview.

To deploy your app, you may need to install an adapter for your target environment.
