Workaround is to update the "dev" script to svelte-kit sync && vite dev, but would be great to have it fixed on the Houdini side.

[xmlking]

@AlecAivazis any plan to resolving this issue ? without workaround: svelte-kit sync && vite dev developers trying first time may struggle and face bad experience.

if there are any road blocks, may be we should document this workaround.

[AlecAivazis]

I definitely plan on resolving it. My biggest hurdle right now is finding the time. if you have the time to explore a bit, let me know!

[AlecAivazis]

Just to update this issue with some conversations we've been having internally: since both of the bumps to support sveltekit 2 and svelte 5 will create major releases, we're going to wait until svelte 5 is ready before going to [email protected]

[xmlking]

Will Houdini 2 have any new features ? I was thinking SvelteKit 2 and and svelte 5 changes are unrelated, and would be big impact for migration

[AlecAivazis]

no, [email protected] will very likely be mostly version bumps. there might be some random clean up but we dont have anything major planned.

anyway, i'm going to close this ticket since #1300 and its related friends will use the latest sveltekit version
