Welcome to the CloudCannon SvelteKit starter guide! If you want to get your SvelteKit Site editable, built, and live on CloudCannon, you are in the right place.
Before we start, this guide assumes you already have a SvelteKit site uploaded to a Git repository. Although you can upload files directly from your hard drive, we highly recommend using a Git repository.
Don’t have a SvelteKit site yet? No worries! You can create one with our Jamstack tutorials for your favorite SSGs.
With SvelteKit, you can use CloudCannon’s Source Editor out-of-the-box. We’ll teach you how to configure our other editing interfaces: the Visual, Content, and Data Editors.
In this guide we’ll cover how to create an account, create your first site, turn SvelteKit into an SSG and update it to use file data, and configure SvelteKit for the best CloudCannon experience.
What is CloudCannon?#
CloudCannon is a Git-based Content Management System. With CloudCannon, you can easily build and maintain your SvelteKit Site using familiar Git workflows. Plus, your content team can effortlessly update and manage the content without knowing anything about SvelteKit, Git, Markdown, or HTML.
If building on CloudCannon isn't the right option for you, please read our guide on setting up CloudCannon in Headless Mode.
