This article discusses an experiment using SvelteKit and @11ty/is-land to add partial hydration to a SvelteKit site. The goal is to selectively hydrate individual components instead of the entire page. The article mentions that this is currently a proof-of-concept but may be packaged for reuse in the future. It provides instructions on how to get started with using this approach and explains how it works. The article also highlights some limitations of this approach and invites suggestions for improvement.
Svelte is a modern front-end framework that compiles your code at build time, resulting in smaller and faster applications. It uses a reactive approach to update the DOM, allowing for high performance and a smoother user experience.

PrismJS is an open-source, lightweight, and extensible syntax highlighting library that supports a wide range of programming languages and markup formats.
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
