When using adapter-static, most people focus on prerendering and deployment targets. But there is another lever that quietly affects performance and portability: output.bundleStrategy.
By default, SvelteKit splits your app into multiple chunks for better caching and lazy loading. That is usually what you want.
But if you are building:
• A fully static site
• An embeddable widget
• A portable demo
• A microfrontend
• Something that needs to work cleanly from simple static hosting
You can switch strategies.
For example:
split → multiple JS/CSS files, better caching
single → one JS file and one CSS file
inline → everything injected directly into the HTML
With adapter-static, this can make your build output dramatically simpler, depending on your use case.
Sometimes performance and portability decisions start in your config file, not your components.
import adapter from '@sveltejs/adapter-static';
export default {
kit: {
adapter: adapter(),
output: {
bundleStrategy: 'single'
}
}
};
