+
+## What is Intlayer?
+
+**Intlayer** is an innovative, open-source internationalization (i18n) library designed to simplify multilingual support in modern web applications. It works seamlessly with **SvelteKit's** Server-Side Rendering (SSR) capabilities.
+
+With Intlayer, you can:
+
+- **Easily manage translations** using declarative dictionaries at the component level.
+- **Dynamically localize metadata**, routes, and content.
+- **Ensure TypeScript support** with autogenerated types.
+- **Leverage SvelteKit's SSR** for SEO-friendly internationalization.

+
+See [Application Template](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer-sveltekit-template) on GitHub.
+
+To get started, create a new SvelteKit project. Here is the final structure that we will make:
+
+```bash

+└── vite.config.ts
+```
+
+### Step 1: Install Dependencies
+
+Install the necessary packages using npm:
+
+```bash packageManager="npm"
+npm install intlayer svelte-intlayer
+npm install vite-intlayer --save-dev
+```
+
+```bash packageManager="pnpm"
+pnpm add intlayer svelte-intlayer
+pnpm add vite-intlayer --save-dev
+```
+
+```bash packageManager="yarn"
+yarn add intlayer svelte-intlayer
+yarn add vite-intlayer --save-dev
+```
+
+```bash packageManager="bun"
+bun add intlayer svelte-intlayer
+bun add vite-intlayer --save-dev
+```
+
+- **intlayer**: The core i18n package.
+- **svelte-intlayer**: Provides context providers and stores for Svelte/SvelteKit.
+- **vite-intlayer**: The Vite plugin to integrate content declarations with the build process.
+
+### Step 2: Configuration of your project
+
+Create a config file in your project root:
+
+```typescript fileName="intlayer.config.ts"
+import { Locales, type IntlayerConfig } from "intlayer";
+
+const config: IntlayerConfig = {
+  internationalization: {
+    locales: [Locales.ENGLISH, Locales.FRENCH, Locales.SPANISH],
+    defaultLocale: Locales.ENGLISH,
+  },
+};
+
+export default config;
+```
+
+### Step 3: Integrate Intlayer in Your Vite Configuration
+
+Update your `vite.config.ts` to include the Intlayer plugin. This plugin handles the transpilation of your content files.
+
+```typescript fileName="vite.config.ts"
+import { sveltekit } from "@sveltejs/kit/vite";
+import { defineConfig } from "vite";
+import { intlayer } from "vite-intlayer";
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [intlayer(), sveltekit()], // order matters, Intlayer should be placed before SvelteKit
+});
+```
+
+### Step 4: Declare Your Content
+
+Create your content declaration files anywhere in your `src` folder (e.g., `src/lib/content` or alongside your components). These files define the translatable content for your application using the `t()` function for each locale.
+
+```ts fileName="src/features/hero/hero.content.ts" contentDeclarationFormat="typescript"
+import { t, type Dictionary } from "intlayer";
+
+const heroContent = {
+  key: "hero-section",
+  content: {
+    title: t({
+      en: "Welcome to SvelteKit",
+      fr: "Bienvenue sur SvelteKit",
+      es: "Bienvenido a SvelteKit",
+    }),
+  },
+} satisfies Dictionary;
+
+export default heroContent;
+```
+
+### Step 5: Utilize Intlayer in Your Components
+
+Now you can use the `useIntlayer` function in any Svelte component. It returns a reactive store that automatically updates when the locale changes. The function will automatically respect the current locale (both during SSR and client-side navigation).
+
+> **Note:** `useIntlayer` returns a Svelte store, so you need to use the `$` prefix to access its reactive value (e.g., `$content.title`).
+
+```svelte fileName="src/lib/components/Component.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { useIntlayer } from "svelte-intlayer";
+
+  // "hero-section" corresponds to the key defined in Step 4
+  const content = useIntlayer("hero-section");
+</script>
+
+<!-- Render content as simple content  -->
+<h1>{$content.title}</h1>
+<!-- To render the content editable using the editor -->
+<h1><svelte:component this={$content.title} /></h1>
+<!-- To render the content as a string -->
+<div aria-label={$content.title.value}></div>
+```
+
+### (Optional) Step 6: Set up routing
+
+The following steps show how to set up locale-based routing in SvelteKit. This allows your URLs to include the locale prefix (e.g., `/en/about`, `/fr/about`) for better SEO and user experience.
+
+```bash
+.
+└─── src
+    ├── app.d.ts                  # Define the locale type
+    ├── hooks.server.ts           # Manage locale routing
+    ├── lib
+    │   └── getLocale.ts          # Check the locale from the header, cookies
+    ├── params
+    │   └── locale.ts             # Define the locale parameter
+    └── routes
+        ├── [[locale=locale]]     # Wrap in a route group to set the locale
+        │   ├── +layout.svelte    # Local layout for the route
+        │   ├── +layout.ts
+        │   ├── +page.svelte
+        │   ├── +page.ts
+        │   └── about
+        │       ├── +page.svelte
+        │       └── +page.ts
+        └── +layout.svelte         # Root layout for fonts and global styles
+```
+
+### Step 7: Handle Server-Side Locale Detection (Hooks)
+
+In SvelteKit, the server needs to know the user's locale to render the correct content during SSR. We use `hooks.server.ts` to detect the locale from the URL or cookies.
+
+Create or modify `src/hooks.server.ts`:
+
+```typescript fileName="src/hooks.server.ts"
+import type { Handle } from "@sveltejs/kit";
+import { getLocalizedUrl } from "intlayer";
+import { getLocale } from "$lib/getLocale";
+
+export const handle: Handle = async ({ event, resolve }) => {
+  const detectedLocale = getLocale(event);
+
+  // Check if the current path already starts with a locale (e.g. /fr, /en)
+  const pathname = event.url.pathname;
+  const targetPathname = getLocalizedUrl(pathname, detectedLocale);
+
+  // If NO locale is present in the URL (e.g. user visits "/"), redirect them
+  if (targetPathname !== pathname) {
+    return new Response(undefined, {
+      headers: { Location: targetPathname },
+      status: 307, // Temporary redirect
+    });
+  }
+
+  return resolve(event, {
+    transformPageChunk: ({ html }) => html.replace("%lang%", detectedLocale),
+  });
+};
+```
+
+Then, create a helper to get the user's locale from the request event:
+
+```typescript fileName="src/lib/getLocale.ts"
+import {
+  configuration,
+  getLocaleFromStorage,
+  localeDetector,
+  type Locale,
+} from "intlayer";
+import type { RequestEvent } from "@sveltejs/kit";
+
+/**
+ * Get the user's locale from the request event.
+ * This function is used in the `handle` hook in `src/hooks.server.ts`.
+ *
+ * It first tries to get the locale from the Intlayer storage (cookies or custom headers).
+ * If the locale is not found, it falls back to the browser's "Accept-Language" negotiation.
+ *
+ * @param event - The request event from SvelteKit
+ * @returns The user's locale
+ */
+export const getLocale = (event: RequestEvent): Locale => {
+  const defaultLocale = configuration?.internationalization?.defaultLocale;
+
+  // Try to get locale from Intlayer storage (Cookies or headers)
+  const storedLocale = getLocaleFromStorage({
+    // SvelteKit cookies access
+    getCookie: (name: string) => event.cookies.get(name) ?? null,
+    // SvelteKit headers access
+    getHeader: (name: string) => event.request.headers.get(name) ?? null,
+  });
+
+  if (storedLocale) {
+    return storedLocale;
+  }
+
+  // Fallback to Browser "Accept-Language" negotiation
+  const negotiatorHeaders: Record<string, string> = {};
+
+  // Convert SvelteKit Headers object to a plain Record<string, string>
+  event.request.headers.forEach((value, key) => {
+    negotiatorHeaders[key] = value;
+  });
+
+  // Check the locale from the `Accept-Language` header
+  const userFallbackLocale = localeDetector(negotiatorHeaders);
+
+  if (userFallbackLocale) {
+    return userFallbackLocale;
+  }
+
+  // Return default locale if no match is found
+  return defaultLocale;
+};
+```
+
+> `getLocaleFromStorage` will check the locale from header or cookie depending on your configuration. See [Configuration](https://intlayer.org/doc/configuration) for more details.
+
+> The `localeDetector` function will treat the `Accept-Language` header and return the best match.
+
+If the locale is not configured, we want to return a 404 error. To make it easier, we can create a `match` function to check if the locale is valid:
+
+```ts fileName="/src/params/locale.ts"
+import { configuration, type Locale } from "intlayer";
+
+export const match = (
+  param: Locale = configuration.internationalization.defaultLocale
+): boolean => {
+  return configuration.internationalization.locales.includes(param);
+};
+```
+
+> **Note:** Ensure your `src/app.d.ts` includes the locale definition:
+>
+> ```typescript
+> declare global {
+>   namespace App {
+>     interface Locals {
+>       locale: import("intlayer").Locale;
+>     }
+>   }
+> }
+> ```
+
+For the `+layout.svelte` file, we can remove everything, to keep only static content, not related to i18n:
+
+```svelte fileName="src/+layout.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+	 import './layout.css';
+
+    let { children } = $props();
+</script>
+
+<div class="app">
+	{@render children()}
+</div>
+
+<style>
+	.app {
+    /*  */
+	}
+</style>
+```
+
+Then, create a new page and layout under the `[[locale=locale]]` group:
+
+```ts fileName="src/routes/[[locale=locale]]/+layout.ts"
+import type { Load } from "@sveltejs/kit";
+import { configuration, type Locale } from "intlayer";
+
+export const prerender = true;
+
+// Use the generic Load type
+export const load: Load = ({ params }) => {
+  const locale: Locale =
+    (params.locale as Locale) ??
+    configuration.internationalization.defaultLocale;
+
+  return {
+    locale,
+  };
+};
+```
+
+```svelte fileName="src/routes/[[locale=locale]]/+layout.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+	import type { Snippet } from 'svelte';
+	import { useIntlayer, setupIntlayer } from 'svelte-intlayer';
+	import Header from './Header.svelte';
+	import type { LayoutData } from './$types';
+
+	let { children, data }: { children: Snippet, data: LayoutData } = $props();
+
+	// Initialize Intlayer with the locale from the route
+	setupIntlayer(data.locale);
+
+	// Use the layout content dictionary
+	const layoutContent = useIntlayer('layout');
+</script>
+
+<Header />
+
+<main>
+	{@render children()}
+</main>
+
+<footer>
+	<p>
+		{$layoutContent.footer.prefix.value}{' '}
+		<a href="https://svelte.dev/docs/kit">{$layoutContent.footer.linkLabel.value}</a>{' '}
+		{$layoutContent.footer.suffix.value}
+	</p>
+</footer>
+
+<style>
+  /*  */
+</style>
+```
+
+```ts fileName="src/routes/[[locale=locale]]/+page.ts"
+export const prerender = true;
+```
+
+```svelte fileName="src/routes/[[locale=locale]]/+page.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+	import { useIntlayer } from 'svelte-intlayer';
+
+	// Use the home content dictionary
+	const homeContent = useIntlayer('home');
+</script>
+
+<svelte:head>
+	<title>{$homeContent.title.value}</title>
+</svelte:head>
+
+<section>
+	<h1>
+		{$homeContent.title}
+	</h1>
+</section>
+
+<style>
+  /*  */
+</style>
+```
+
+### (Optional) Step 8: Internationalized Links
+
+For SEO, it is recommended to prefix your routes with the locale (e.g., `/en/about`, `/fr/about`). This component automatically prefixes any link with the current locale.
+
+```svelte fileName="src/lib/components/LocalizedLink.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { getLocalizedUrl } from "intlayer";
+  import { useLocale } from 'svelte-intlayer';
+
+  let { href = "" } = $props();
+  const { locale } = useLocale();
+
+  // Helper to prefix URL with current locale
+  $: localizedHref = getLocalizedUrl(href, $locale);
+</script>
+
+<a href={localizedHref}>
+  <slot />
+</a>
+```
+
+If you use `goto` from SvelteKit, you can use the same logic with `getLocalizedUrl` to navigate to the localized URL:
+
+```typescript
+import { goto } from "$app/navigation";
+import { getLocalizedUrl } from "intlayer";
+import { useLocale } from "svelte-intlayer";
+
+const { locale } = useLocale();
+const localizedPath = getLocalizedUrl("/about", $locale);
+goto(localizedPath); // Navigates to /en/about or /fr/about depending on locale
+```
+
+### (Optional) Step 9: Language Switcher
+
+To allow users to switch languages, update the URL.
+
+```svelte fileName="src/lib/components/LanguageSwitcher.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { getLocalizedUrl, getLocaleName } from 'intlayer';
+  import { useLocale } from 'svelte-intlayer';
+  import { page } from '$app/stores';
+  import { goto } from '$app/navigation';
+
+  const { locale, setLocale, availableLocales } = useLocale({
+    onLocaleChange: (newLocale) => {
+      const localizedPath = getLocalizedUrl($page.url.pathname, newLocale);
+      goto(localizedPath);
+    },
+  });
+</script>
+
+<ul class="locale-list">
+  {#each availableLocales as localeEl}
+    <li>
+      <a
+        href={getLocalizedUrl($page.url.pathname, localeEl)}
+        onclick={(e) => {
+          e.preventDefault();
+          setLocale(localeEl); // Will set the locale in the store and trigger onLocaleChange
+        }}
+        class:active={$locale === localeEl}
+      >
+        {getLocaleName(localeEl)}
+      </a>
+    </li>
+  {/each}
+</ul>
+
+<style>
+  /* */
+</style>
+```
+
+### (Optional) Step 10: Add backend proxy
+
+To add a backend proxy to your SvelteKit application, you can use the `intlayerProxy` function provided by the `vite-intlayer` plugin. This plugin will automatically detect the best locale for the user based on the URL, cookies, and browser language preferences.
+
+```ts fileName="vite.config.ts"
+import { defineConfig } from "vite";
+import { intlayer, intlayerProxy } from "vite-intlayer";
+import { sveltekit } from "@sveltejs/kit/vite";
+
+// https://vitejs.dev/config/
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [intlayer(), intlayerProxy(), sveltekit()],
+});
+```
+
+### (Optional) Step 11: Set up the intlayer editor / CMS
+
+To set up the intlayer editor, you must follow the [intlayer editor documentation](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/intlayer_visual_editor.md).
+
+To set up the intlayer CMS, you must follow the [intlayer CMS documentation](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/intlayer_CMS.md).
+
+To be able to visualize the intlayer editor selector, you will have to use the component syntax in your intlayer content.
+
+```svelte fileName="Component.svelte"
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { useIntlayer } from "svelte-intlayer";
+
+  const content = useIntlayer("component");
+</script>
+
+<div>
+
+  <!-- Render content as simple content  -->
+  <h1>{$content.title}</h1>
+
+  <!-- Render content as a component (required by the editor) -->
+  <svelte:component this={$content.component} />
+</div>
+```
+
+### Git Configuration
+
+It is recommended to ignore the files generated by Intlayer.
+
+```plaintext fileName=".gitignore"
+# Ignore the files generated by Intlayer
+.intlayer
+```
+
+---
+
+### Go Further
+
+- **Visual Editor**: Integrate the [Intlayer Visual Editor](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/intlayer_visual_editor.md) to edit translations directly from the UI.
+- **CMS**: Externalize your content management using the [Intlayer CMS](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/intlayer_CMS.md).
