2023-08-10 - Svelte to SvelteKit Upgrade
=================================================================================

Release
==================
*Status: Available*

*Type: DataOps*

*Date: 2023-08-10*

Problem
==================
When we moved from Svelte to SvelteKit for our frontend app, the existing deployment pattern needed to be updated for deploying SvelteKit to App Engine.

Solution
==================
A new nodejs16 container was built for running the SvelteKit build step

Leverage the Magic
====================================
Leverage our existing CI/CD pattern in CLoud Build to build the app , then deploy the artefacts to App Engine

Magician Partner
===========================
We utilise an adaptor specifically for running SvelteKit on App Engine ..

import adapter from "svelte-adapter-appengine";

...which deploys all the compiled artfeacts into a /build folder with its own custom app.yaml
