This document outlines an advanced setup process for creating a Svelte project using SvelteKit, aligning with principles of Clean Architecture and Domain-Driven Design for scalability and stability.
The proposed structure aims to clearly separate concerns, organizing the project into logical divisions that promote maintainability and scalability:

└── main.js # Entry point for the Svelte application
- Core: Contains all the business logic, entity definitions, use cases, and data interface abstractions necessary for the application's functionality.
- UI: Manages all user interface elements, including reusable components, layout definitions, and pages that make up the user-facing part of the application.
- Assets: Houses all static files such as images and fonts used across the application.
- Styles: Includes global styles and CSS variables to maintain consistent styling.
- Save the setup script as
svelte-cli.sh
. - Make it executable with
chmod +x svelte-cli.sh
. - Execute the script in the terminal and follow the prompts to create your project.
This setup script and project structure are designed to kickstart the development of large-scale Svelte applications, focusing on best practices for scalability, maintainability, and stability.
