Closes #15470

We're so back!

Finally, thanks to Syntax and SuppCo that sponsored the Custom Renderers initiative, I was able to work full-time for a bit on this (thanks again to my employer, Mainmatter for allowing me to do this).

This, the fact that we recently revisited the direction we were going (that lead to much less code needed), plus the fact that Claude now is decently good at navigating the Svelte codebase allowed me to do a lot of progress (I was also able to re-use part of the code I already had before).

As you can see, this is a big PR, but I tried to split the commits reasonably so that the review process shouldn't be too bad and there wasn't really a way to verify it worked before having built most of it. There are still a few To-dos but luckily, I also have a few more days to work on this (and at this point is in a place where I can also do it in my spare time).

To-dos

  • Documentation
  • Lift HTML-specific compiler warnings/errors if a custom renderer is defined
  • Write more tests
  • (Stretch) figure out if there's a way to use part of the huge test suite for the custom renderers too
  • (Stretch) figure out if there's a way to lint the DOM access in the runtime code

How it works

experimental.customRenderer is a new compile configuration option. It can be a string or a function that accepts the filename and returns a string. The value should be an NPM package or a module that exports the renderer as its default export. When this option is defined, the compilation output changes a bit (no delegated events, no inlining of node.nodeValue="", no customizable select, etc...basically we're doing a lot of optimization that are specific to the DOM which are skipped).

The compilation also changes because now the compiled component imports the module you specify, uses from_tree instead of from_html, push the renderer at the beginning of the component and pop it at the end...basically this

<p>hello</p>

gets compiled to

import * as $ from 'svelte/internal/client';
import $renderer from 'your-custom-renderer';

var root = $.from_tree([['p', null, 'hello']]);

export default function Main($$anchor) {
	var $$pop_renderer = $.push_renderer($renderer);
	var p = root();

	$.append($$anchor, p);
	$$pop_renderer();
}

What does a custom renderer looks like? You can have a look at the one I created for testing in packages/svelte/tests/custom-renderers/renderer.js to have a more practical example but basically, you can import createRenderer from svelte/renderer and then specify a series of DOM-like operations in your "world".

import { createRenderer } from 'svelte/renderer';

const renderer = createRenderer({
	createFragment() {},
	createElement(name) {},
	createTextNode(data) {},
	createComment(data) {},
	nodeType(node) {},
	getNodeValue(node) {},
	getAttribute(el, name) {},
	setAttribute(el, key, value) {},
	removeAttribute(el, name) {},
	hasAttribute(el, name) {},
	setText(node, text) {},
	getFirstChild(el) {},
	getLastChild(el) {},
	getNextSibling(node) {},
	insert(parent, node, anchor) {},
	remove(node) {},
	getParent(node) {},
	addEventListener(target, type, handler, options) {},
	removeEventListener(target, type, handler, options) {}
});

You can then use the return value to "mount" your component

const root = renderer.createFragment();

const unmount = renderer.render(MyComponent, {
	target: root,
	props: {
		/* ... */
	},
	context: new Map()
});

A good custom renderer is crucial to make svelte works properly so we will need to document this correctly (even though I don't expect people to create custom renderers in their day to day and the Svelte team will likely be the primary user of this API).

A few examples of this:

  • insert assumes that the insertion works like the DOM: if you insert something that already has a parent it should be removed from where it is.
  • insert-ing a fragment means inserting all the children of the fragment in the parent.
  • If your system doesn't have the concept of a parent/child you will need to keep track of the relationship yourself
  • a comment or a fragment can literally just be objects you tuck information to (in case your system doesn't have those concepts

Limits

A few features of Svelte are designed specifically for the DOM and thus are disabled if you try to compile a component with a custom renderer:

  • bind: on regular elements is forbidden, since svelte register known DOM events to keep the variables in sync.
  • transition:, animate:, in: and out: are forbidden, since, once again, those use DOM manipulation under the hood.
  • svelte:window, svelte:body, svelte:document, svelte:head ... I mean, do I really need to explain why this is forbidden?
  • css: injected is also forbidden since it appends the style tag to the document
  • createRawSnippet throws a runtime error since it relies on the template tag to generate the HTML elements from the string you return
  • You can't hydrate a custom renderer compiled component (because in most cases it doesn't make sense since there's no SSR)

Another quirk is that you can technically interleave components compiled with different renderers (imagine a DOM component into a Threlte one) but:

  • it requires a bit of manual handling (the custom renderer need to have a before function on the comment that will receive the fragment/element/text that the component is trying to "mount")
  • Currently is not possible to @render a snippet compiled with a different renderer from the one that is invoking @render. This means if I'm mounting a DOM component into a Threlte component I can't pass a snippet (unless that snippet is exported from a component compiled without a renderer and imported into the Threlte component)

These limitations might change before we merge if we find a way to make them work.

What this PR does?

The main job of this PR is to centralize every DOM operation in operations.js as an exported function. This allows the function to check if a renderer is available so that it can call the method on the renderer instead of the DOM method. The renderer is also captured in every effect created in the component, since it needs to be "pushed" again before the effect execute. The same is true for boundaries, batches and each blocks.

I've also added a somewhat decent test suite that uses a render-to-object renderer that renders the svelte components to...well...an object. This allows the tests to be "similar" to the rest of the test suite (there's even an object-to-HTML string helper to assert the shape of the component) but is executed in a node environment, so every access to DOM API will actually throw.

I've changed some of the validation in place, but there's still a few warnings and errors that don't make sense, which I plan to fix before merging.

A few questions

  • Right now, there are some places that are guaranteed to never be touched by the custom renderers paths (either because it's behind a hydration flag or because it's part of a feature that is forbidden at compile time). I didn't touch the DOM access in those part of the codebase. The advantage of this is that the diff is smaller and is much more clear what the intent is. The disadvantage is that now we don't have a clear rule of "never access the DOM in the runtime folder".
  • Right now, Typescript is a big fat lie in the whole codebase: we always assume what we are dealing with is a Node/HTMLElement, but in reality it could be anything by the moment we drop the custom renderers API. Changing the types to be object could help us with the maintainability of the custom renderers API (now Typescript will yell at us if we try to access element.value without checking)...but it could make the maintainability of DOM Svelte a nightmare (because now you have to check everything and everywhere). Should we keep it a lie?
  • We technically could produce shorter compiled code with custom renderers (there are a few methods that literally do nothing and bail immediately if there's a custom renderer). However, that would mean a more messy (and thus less maintainable) compiler code... I would say having the same output weights more than a few bytes of compiler output.

Extra

To test this out, I (admittedly Claude) built an opentui custom renderer to render svelte component to the terminal...here's a small preview.

I've been building svelterm on this branch and wanted to share where it got to.

svelterm puts a CSS engine over the API: cascade, flexbox, grid, animations and form controls doing layout on a cell grid, over a renderer of plain node objects. The same component source renders to the DOM in a browser and to a terminal, which the playground shows side by side. There's a short write-up of how it uses the API at svelterm.dev/docs/how-it-works — it's largely LLM-written under human direction, for what that's worth.

Feedback from tracking the branch: the port to the unified mount({ renderer, … }) API was small and the result is cleaner than renderer.render() was. The one gap it surfaced is that mount is only reachable behind the browser export condition, which strands custom renderers running client rendering on Node (terminals, tests) — proposed fix in #18505. The other thing svelterm leans on is per-environment compiler options in vite-plugin-svelte (sveltejs/vite-plugin-svelte#1318) for serving browser and terminal builds from one dev server.

There's also a blog post on how it came about. Happy to adjust how I'm describing the experimental status if you'd like it framed differently — and thanks for the API, it works really well.

I would appreciate someone else from the team could review this as well. Imho, Svelte is the most beautiful way to write web UI, especially since the introduction of hooks in React. 😂

Lynx is such a cool project and seems like the best multi-platform choice if you don't want to Flutter your UI on a fake game engine. Rendering a real DOM on Web is insane for a framework like this. True native-ness all galore, but please while using Svelte.

(I know there is Vue, not a fan of that either, to be honest.)

Yeah the team focus right now is on sveltekit 3 but as soon as that's out Rich is gonna review it

khromov added a commit to khromov/gpuix that referenced this pull request Aug 23, 2026
Svelte's custom renderer API (sveltejs/svelte#18042) lets Svelte drive
non-DOM hosts. This is the Svelte counterpart to @gpuix/react: a 19-method
renderer object plus a window/frame-loop entry point. No Rust changes — it
drives the existing @gpuix/native mutation API unmodified.

The hard part is that GPUI has no comment nodes and no fragments, while
Svelte's tree is full of anchors marking every {#if}, {#each} and component
boundary — and most of those anchors are empty *text* nodes, not comments.
So the renderer keeps a JS shadow tree and projects it onto GPUI:

  - elements and non-blank text get a nativeId; comments, blank text and
    fragments never do, and are ordering-only
  - native ids are allocated lazily, on first reachability from the root,
    so Svelte's constant offscreen rendering (the shared each-block
    fragment, deferred branches, boundary pending content) emits nothing
  - virtual nodes are always leaves, so resolving "the next native node"
    is a flat scan of following siblings
  - remove() never destroys; Svelte removes and re-inserts the same node
    in consecutive statements, so destroyElement is deferred to commit

Styling goes through CSS text, since that is how Svelte hands over the
style attribute, and is translated to GPUI's camelCase StyleDesc. GPUI's
nested hover/active styles have no CSS-text spelling and get their own
attributes.

Reloading is handled by render_hot rather than `bun --hot`: .svelte files
are plugin-loaded and never enter Bun's watch graph, and a --hot reload
re-evaluates Svelte's runtime, orphaning the previous component.

Tests run against TestGpuixRenderer (real Metal, no window):
  test/reorder.js   15 keyed {#each} projection cases
  test/smoke.js     mount, click, {#if}, keyed add/remove, screenshot
  test/coverage.js  Svelte's own 47-sample custom-renderer suite

Coverage: 32 of the 47 samples work; 14 are refusals Svelte itself
enforces under customRenderer; 1 (boundary-pending) hits a compiler bug
on the Svelte branch, before the renderer is ever reached.

Note: the `svelte` dependency is a file: path to a local checkout of the
custom-condition branch, so it is machine-specific. scripts/link-svelte.sh
re-links it after bun install (SVELTE_REPO=... to point elsewhere).

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This change adds experimental custom renderer support. Compiler options and component options select, disable, or resolve renderers. Generated components use renderer-specific imports and context. Runtime DOM operations, mounting, hydration, effects, events, attributes, styles, snippets, and blocks now support renderer nodes. Type declarations expose renderer contracts and typed mount targets. Tests cover rendering, updates, events, snippets, compiler errors, server output, and type safety.

Validate values returned by a custom-renderer resolver.

A resolver bypasses the validation applied to direct values. For example, customRenderer: () => true passes validation even though the documented result type is only string | null | undefined. The boolean then reaches downstream compiler logic instead of producing an option diagnostic.

Wrap the resolver and validate its result before returning it.

Preserve option-specific listener registrations.

removeEventListener removes every registration with the same handler. It must remove only the registration with the matching capture option. dispatch_event also calls { once: true } listeners more than once.

A component that registers one callback in capture and non-capture phases can lose the remaining listener during teardown or update. This renderer also cannot validate one-time listener behaviour. Match removals by capture mode and remove one-time listeners after dispatch.

- Line 40: Update the customRenderer handling in the options parser to
distinguish literal null from non-static expressions and reject unsupported
attribute shapes. Accept only a string, true, false, or literal null; emit the
existing compiler diagnostic for all other values, including dynamic expressions
such as renderer.

In `@packages/svelte/src/compiler/phases/2-analyze/visitors/RegularElement.js`:
- Around line 40-42: Guard the entire textarea child-normalisation
transformation, including rewriting dynamic children to a value attribute and
clearing the fragment, with !custom_renderer. Keep custom-renderer textarea
nodes unchanged while preserving the existing DOM diagnostic behavior and
normalisation for the standard renderer.

In `@packages/svelte/src/compiler/phases/3-transform/client/transform-client.js`:
- Line 597: Ensure renderer-stack cleanup runs on every exit path: in
packages/svelte/src/compiler/phases/3-transform/client/transform-client.js#L597-L597,
protect the generated renderer scope with try/finally or pop before every
generated return; in
packages/svelte/src/internal/client/dom/blocks/boundary.js#L278-L280 and
`#L431-L434`, wrap the pending-content and insertion renderer scopes in
try/finally so early returns and renderer-operation errors always execute the
matching $$pop_renderer cleanup.

In `@packages/svelte/src/compiler/phases/3-transform/server/transform-server.js`:
- Around line 101-105: Update the server transform’s early-return path to
preserve the transformed declarations and exports from analysis.module.ast,
while replacing only the default component rendering implementation with the
no-op for custom renderers. Keep the Program/module output structure intact and
ensure module-script exports such as value remain available.

In `@packages/svelte/src/internal/client/dom/blocks/branches.js`:
- Line 99: Wrap the renderer activation and subsequent branch commit work in a
try/finally so the cleanup returned by push_renderer is always invoked,
including when `#commit` throws. Update the code around push_renderer and `#commit`
while preserving the existing successful rendering behavior.

In `@packages/svelte/src/internal/client/dom/blocks/each.js`:
- Line 274: Update the renderer-context handling in the each-block
reconciliation flow around push_renderer and pop_renderer so pop_renderer
executes in a finally block, including when reconcile or fallback handling
throws. Preserve the existing renderer push/pop ordering and ensure
current_renderer is restored on both success and failure paths.

In `@packages/svelte/src/internal/client/dom/operations.js`:
- Line 528: Replace the direct semicolon splitting at both style declaration
parsing sites with a scanner that separates declarations only at top-level
semicolons, tracking quoted strings, escape sequences, and parentheses. Preserve
semicolons inside CSS values, including quoted content, data URLs, and

declarations.

In `@packages/svelte/src/internal/client/reactivity/effects.js`:
- Around line 523-524: Update the scoped renderer handling around push_renderer
in the affected effect-removal and related paths so all work, including removal,

pop_renderer?.() in finally to restore the previous renderer even when custom
renderer operations throw, while preserving the existing normal-path behavior.

Reject non-static and unsupported customRenderer values.

get_static_value returns null for both literal null and a non-static expression. Therefore, <svelte:options customRenderer={renderer}> is treated as customRenderer={null}. packages/svelte/src/compiler/index.js then compiles the component for the DOM without a diagnostic. Validate the attribute shape and accept only a string, true, false, or literal null.

Keep textarea child normalisation out of custom-renderer compilation.

Line 40 suppresses the DOM diagnostic, but the following branch still rewrites dynamic <textarea> children into a value attribute and clears the fragment. A custom renderer can treat textarea as an ordinary element, so it receives a different tree for <textarea>{value}</textarea>.

Guard the enclosing textarea transformation with !custom_renderer.

Restore the renderer stack on every exit path.

The generated return at Lines 430-437 in packages/svelte/src/compiler/phases/3-transform/client/transform-client.js bypasses the tail $$pop_renderer() call. In development, $.legacy_api makes that return path active. In packages/svelte/src/internal/client/dom/blocks/boundary.js, the early return at Lines 301-304 and renderer-operation errors also bypass the tail pop calls. A stale current renderer can route later operations to the wrong renderer.

Preserve module-script exports in server output.

This early return skips the transformation of analysis.module.ast. A component with <script module>export const value = 1;</script> loses value when compiled for the server with a custom renderer. Keep transformed module declarations and exports. Replace only the default component rendering implementation with the no-op.

For the moment I'll keep this as is since exports from the module could also use the template part...we'll figure out what to do with this later on.

@paoloricciuti, understood. The finding remains valid, but a fix needs defined server semantics for module exports that depend on the template. Keeping the current no-op server output is reasonable for this experimental feature.

Would you like me to open a follow-up issue for this limitation?

Learning: For custom-renderer components, `packages/svelte/src/compiler/phases/3-transform/server/transform-server.js` currently emits a no-op server component and does not transform module-script exports. Preserving these exports requires defined server semantics because module exports can depend on the component template.

Parse CSS declarations without splitting inside values.

Lines 528 and 557 split the style attribute on every semicolon. CSS values can contain semicolons in quoted strings, data URLs, and functions. Updating or removing one property can then truncate another declaration and produce invalid renderer output.

Use a declaration scanner that tracks quotes, escapes, and parentheses before separating declarations.

Restore the renderer in a finally block.

push_renderer changes shared current_renderer, but pop_renderer?.() runs only on the normal path. If a custom renderer throws during effect removal, insertion, or sibling lookup, these functions leave the renderer active. Later operations can be routed through the wrong renderer and effect cleanup can remain incomplete.

Wrap the scoped work in try/finally and call pop_renderer?.() from the finally block.
