## Overview of Changes

Svelte 5 introduces runes, a set of advanced primitives for controlling reactivity. The runes replace certain non-runes features and provide more explicit control over state and effects.

Snippets, along with render tags, help create reusable chunks of markup inside your components, reducing duplication and enhancing maintainability.

## Event Handlers in Svelte 5

In Svelte 5, event handlers are treated as standard HTML properties rather than Svelte-specific directives, simplifying their use and integrating them more closely with the rest of the properties in the component.

### Svelte 4 vs. Svelte 5:

**Before (Svelte 4):**
```html
<script>
  let count = 0;
  $: double = count * 2;
  $: {
    if (count > 10) alert('Too high!');
  }
</script>
<button on:click={() => count++}> {count} / {double}</button>
```

**After (Svelte 5):**
```html
<script>
  // Define state with runes
  let count = $state(0);
  
  // Option 1: Using $derived for computed values
  let double = $derived(count * 2);
  
  // Reactive effects using runes
  $effect(() => {
    if (count > 10) alert('Too high!');
  });
</script>

<!-- Standard HTML event attributes instead of Svelte directives -->
<button onclick={() => count++}>
  {count} / {double}
</button>

<!-- Alternatively, you can compute values inline -->
<!-- <button onclick={() => count++}>
  {count} / {count * 2}
</button> -->
```

## Key Differences:

1. **Reactivity is Explicit**: 
   - Svelte 5 uses `$state()` to explicitly mark reactive variables
   - `$derived()` replaces `$:` for computed values 
   - `$effect()` replaces `$: {}` blocks for side effects

2. **Event Handling is Standardized**:
   - Svelte 4: `on:click={handler}`
   - Svelte 5: `onclick={handler}`

3. **Runes are Compiler Syntax**:
   - Do not import `$state`, `$derived`, `$effect`, `$props`, `$bindable`, or `$inspect`.
   - Import only regular Svelte utilities that require imports, such as `tick`, `untrack`, `mount`, or `unmount`.

4. **No More Event Modifiers**:
   - Svelte 4: `on:click|preventDefault={handler}`
   - Svelte 5: `onclick={e => { e.preventDefault(); handler(e); }}`

This creates clearer, more maintainable components compared to Svelte 4's previous syntax by making reactivity explicit and using standardized web platform features.

نصبش چطور است

1. Open the tool and start a new conversation, project or template.
2. Paste the text below wherever the tool keeps standing instructions
   — usually called system prompt, instructions, or persona.
3. Save it so it applies to every run rather than a single message.
