Please include a minimal reproduction instead of your entire project.

I finally found the root cause for this issue. my env:

1. ✅ SvelteKit project with "@sveltejs/kit": "^2.0.0" and some prerendered landing and blog routes
2. ✅ Using @vite-pwa/sveltekit for offline access support with ServiceWorker. and having serviceWorker: { register: false } in svelte.config.js as recommended in their docs
3. 🙅🏽 Added preloadStrategy: 'preload-mjs' in svelte.config.js according to sveltekit docs assuming it give better performance

output: {
	preloadStrategy: 'preload-mjs'
},

after I remove preloadStrategy: 'preload-mjs' setting in svelte.config.js css is generated as expected.

lesson learned: while using prerender = true routes, don't use preloadStrategy: 'preload-mjs'

First I though vite-pwa/sveltekit caused the issue. but it is doing its job well 👍🏽

Thanks for posting your findings. I think it’s worth it to keep this open since it should still prerender correctly even with that preload strategy
