Astand is a lightweight, reactive state management library designed specifically for Svelte 5. It simplifies state handling by leveraging Svelte's powerful reactive primitives, known as "runes," to ensure fine-grained, efficient reactivity with minimal overhead.
Why Astand?
Inspired by the simplicity of Zustand and deeply integrated with Svelte's reactive system, Astand offers developers an intuitive and highly performant approach to managing global or scoped state.
Key highlights of Astand:
Minimal Boilerplate: Quickly set up and manage state without extensive configuration.
Middleware Support: Easily extend state stores with middleware for logging, debugging, validation, or other cross-cutting concerns.
Full TypeScript Integration: Built with TypeScript-first principles, ensuring excellent type safety and developer experience out of the box.
Native Svelte Compatibility: Directly implements Svelte's store contract (subscribe method), allowing seamless integration into Svelte applications without extra wrappers or adapters.
Compared to native Svelte stores and alternative libraries, Astand provides an enhanced developer experience through built-in support for common tasks (such as state persistence and middleware), reducing complexity and streamlining your application's state management.
