Description: I made a web-based level editor for my video game using Svelte and SvelteKit. I’ll talk you through why the game needed a custom level editor, how I implemented the visual editing interface, and some of the technical challenges I encountered along the way. 

Bio: Elliot Bentley is a frontend developer and journalist, specialising in data visualisation, who also dabbles in video game development.

In this talk I will share a small side project I worked on, the different technologies I employed to build a photo editor in the web

Technologies Used

SvelteKit + Svelte 5
WebAssembly via Rust
Melt UI
Web Workers

Part of the AttendZen platform is a simple event website builder, where you can drag components onto a preview and edit them, with Svelte updating the preview in realtime. We'll look at a few challenges we ran into when developing this.

How to implement authentication in SvelteKit. We'll implement everything ourselves from scratch, with the PKCE flow. Then, we'll see how simple it can get with EdgeDB.
