SikhAid Component Patterns
Component Hierarchy
1. Layout Components
Purpose: Wrapper components that provide consistent structure across pages
-
src/routes/+layout.svelte- Root layout- Wraps all pages with Header and Footer
- Conditionally hides Header/Footer on admin routes
- Loads Razorpay script
- Includes global styles
-
src/routes/admin/+layout.svelte- Admin nested layout- Adds admin-specific styling and structure
- Inherits from root layout
2. Page Components
Purpose: Route-specific entry points
- Located in
src/routes/ - Named
+page.svelte - Compose feature and UI components
- Example:
src/routes/+page.svelte(home page)
3. Feature Components
Purpose: Reusable sections that combine multiple UI elements
Location: src/lib/components/
Examples:
Header.svelte- Navigation with dropdown menu, responsive mobile menuFooter.svelte- Footer with quick links, admin login modalHero.svelte- Hero section with background image and CTACampaignCarousel.svelte- Featured campaigns with Swiper/carouselPaymentForm.svelte- Complete donation form with Razorpay integration
Home-specific features:
- Location:
src/lib/components/home/ - Examples:
ImpactCounterSection.svelte,MissionSection.svelte
Admin-specific features:
- Location:
src/lib/components/admin/ - Examples:
SubmissionModal.svelte
4. UI Components
Purpose: Small, highly reusable elements
- Buttons, inputs, cards, modals
- Often accept props for customization
- Example: Modal components, form inputs with validation
Naming Conventions
Component Files
- Format: PascalCase
- Pattern:
[Descriptor][Type].svelte - Examples:
PaymentForm.svelte- Form for paymentsCampaignCarousel.svelte- Carousel for campaignsImpactCounterSection.svelte- Section with impact countersSubmissionModal.svelte- Modal for form submissions

Component Structure Pattern
Standard Component Template
<script lang="ts">
// 1. Imports
import { Icon } from '@iconify/svelte';
import { storeName } from '$lib/stores/storeName';
// 2. Props (if any)
export let propName: string;
export let optionalProp: number = 0;
// 3. Local state
let localVariable = '';
let isLoading = false;
// 4. Reactive declarations
$: computedValue = propName.toUpperCase();
// 5. Functions
async function handleSubmit() {
// Event handler logic
}
</script>
<!-- 6. Markup -->
<div class="container">
<!-- Component content -->
</div>
<!-- 7. Component-specific styles (if needed) -->
<style>
.custom-class {
/* Scoped styles */
}
</style>
Import Patterns
Importing Components
// From lib/components
import Header from '$lib/components/Header.svelte';
import PaymentForm from '$lib/components/PaymentForm.svelte';
// From subdirectories
import ImpactCounter from '$lib/components/home/ImpactCounterSection.svelte';
import SubmissionModal from '$lib/components/admin/SubmissionModal.svelte';
Importing Stores
import { selectedAmount, setDonationAmount } from '$lib/stores/donation';
import { contactSubmissions } from '$lib/stores/contact';
Importing Types
import type { Campaign } from '$lib/types/campaign';
import type { ContactSubmission } from '$lib/stores/contact';
Importing Data
import { campaigns } from '$lib/data/campaigns';
Importing Icons
import { Icon } from '@iconify/svelte';
// Usage:
<Icon icon="mdi:heart" />
<Icon icon="mdi:email" />
Common Component Patterns
1. Form Component Pattern
Example: PaymentForm.svelte
Key Features:
- Two-way binding:
bind:value={formData.field} - Validation on submit
- Loading states:
isSubmitting - Success/error messages
- Prevent default:
on:submit|preventDefault={handleSubmit}
<script lang="ts">
let formData = { name: '', email: '', phone: '' };
let isSubmitting = false;
let errorMessage = '';
async function handleSubmit() {
if (!validateForm()) return;
isSubmitting = true;
try {
// Submit logic
await addToFirestore(formData);
} catch (error) {
errorMessage = 'Submission failed';
} finally {
isSubmitting = false;
}
}
</script>
<form on:submit|preventDefault={handleSubmit}>
<input type="text" bind:value={formData.name} required />
<button type="submit" disabled={isSubmitting}>
{isSubmitting ? 'Submitting...' : 'Submit'}
</button>
</form>
2. Navigation Component Pattern
Example: Header.svelte
Key Features:
- Dropdown menus with state
- Mobile responsive menu toggle
- Active route highlighting with
$page.url.pathname - Conditional rendering
<script lang="ts">
import { page } from '$app/stores';
let isMenuOpen = false;
let isDropdownOpen = false;
$: currentPath = $page.url.pathname;
$: isActive = (path: string) => currentPath === path;
</script>
<nav>
<a href="/about" class:active={isActive('/about')}>About</a>
<button on:click={() => isMenuOpen = !isMenuOpen}>
Menu
</button>
</nav>
3. Modal Component Pattern
Example: SubmissionModal.svelte in admin
Key Features:
- Show/hide state
- Backdrop click to close
- Slot for content
- Escape key handling
<script lang="ts">
export let isOpen = false;
export let onClose: () => void;
function handleBackdropClick(event: MouseEvent) {
if (event.target === event.currentTarget) {
onClose();
}
}
</script>
{#if isOpen}
<div class="modal-backdrop" on:click={handleBackdropClick}>
<div class="modal-content">
<slot />
<button on:click={onClose}>Close</button>
</div>
</div>
{/if}
4. Data Display Component Pattern
Example: Campaign cards, blog cards
Key Features:
- Props for data
- Click handlers
- Conditional rendering with
{#if} - Iteration with
{#each}
<script lang="ts">
import type { Campaign } from '$lib/types/campaign';
import { campaigns } from '$lib/data/campaigns';
function handleCampaignClick(slug: string) {
goto(`/campaigns/${slug}`);
}
</script>
<div class="grid">
{#each campaigns as campaign}
<div class="card" on:click={() => handleCampaignClick(campaign.slug)}>
<h3>{campaign.title}</h3>
<p>{campaign.shortDescription}</p>
{#if campaign.status === 'ongoing'}
<span class="badge">Active</span>
{/if}
</div>
{/each}
</div>
Reactivity Patterns
Store Subscriptions
<script lang="ts">
import { selectedAmount } from '$lib/stores/donation';
// Auto-subscribes with $ prefix
$: amount = $selectedAmount;
</script>
<div>Selected: ₹{$selectedAmount}</div>
Reactive Declarations
<script lang="ts">
let count = 0;
// Recomputes when count changes
$: doubled = count * 2;
// Reactive statement
$: if (count > 10) {
console.log('Count exceeded 10!');
}
</script>
Reactive Bindings
<script lang="ts">
let value = '';
$: valueLength = value.length;
</script>
<input bind:value />
<p>Length: {valueLength}</p>
Event Handling Patterns
Standard Events
<button on:click={handleClick}>Click</button>
<form on:submit|preventDefault={handleSubmit}>...</form>
<input on:input={handleInput} on:blur={handleBlur} />
Event Modifiers
preventDefault- Prevent default behaviorstopPropagation- Stop event bubblingonce- Fire handler only onceself- Only fire if event.target is the element itself
<form on:submit|preventDefault={handleSubmit}>
<div on:click|self={handleBackdrop}>
Custom Events (Component Communication)
<!-- Child component -->
<script lang="ts">
import { createEventDispatcher } from 'svelte';
const dispatch = createEventDispatcher();
function emitEvent() {
dispatch('custom-event', { data: 'value' });
}
</script>
<!-- Parent component -->
<ChildComponent on:custom-event={handleCustomEvent} />
Styling Patterns
Tailwind Classes (Primary Method)
<div class="container mx-auto px-4 py-8">
<h1 class="text-3xl md:text-5xl font-bold text-navy-custom">
Title
</h1>
</div>
Conditional Classes
<div class="btn" class:active={isActive} class:disabled={isDisabled}>
Button
</div>
Component-Scoped Styles (When Needed)
<style>
.custom-animation {
animation: fade-in 0.6s ease-out;
}
/* Scoped to this component only */
h1 {
color: var(--navy);
}
</style>
Component Communication
Parent → Child (Props)
<!-- Parent -->
<ChildComponent title="Hello" count={5} />
<!-- Child -->
<script lang="ts">
export let title: string;
export let count: number;
</script>
Child → Parent (Events)
<!-- Child -->
<script lang="ts">
import { createEventDispatcher } from 'svelte';
const dispatch = createEventDispatcher();
</script>
<button on:click={() => dispatch('clicked', { data })}>Click</button>
<!-- Parent -->
<Child on:clicked={handleClick} />
Sibling Components (Stores)
<!-- Component A -->
<script lang="ts">
import { selectedAmount } from '$lib/stores/donation';
$selectedAmount = 1000;
</script>
<!-- Component B -->
<script lang="ts">
import { selectedAmount } from '$lib/stores/donation';
</script>
<div>Amount: {$selectedAmount}</div>
Accessibility Patterns
Semantic HTML
<nav>...</nav>
<main>...</main>
<section>...</section>
<form>...</form>
ARIA Labels
<button aria-label="Close menu" on:click={closeMenu}>
<Icon icon="mdi:close" />
</button>
<input
type="email"
aria-label="Email address"
aria-required="true"
/>
Form Labels
<label for="name">Full Name *</label>
<input id="name" name="name" type="text" required />
