sapper:
sapper uses a file-based routing model, where the folder structure of your project determines the routes. This approach simplifies routing by automatically generating routes based on the files you create, making it intuitive and easy to manage.
svelte-routing:
svelte-routing provides a declarative routing model similar to React Router, where routes are defined using <Route> components. This allows for more control and flexibility in how routes are structured and rendered within your application.
svelte-spa-router:
svelte-spa-router uses a simple declarative approach to define routes using a single <Router> component. Routes are defined in a straightforward manner, making it easy to understand and manage, especially for SPAs.

sapper:
sapper has built-in support for server-side rendering (SSR), allowing pages to be rendered on the server and sent to the client as fully-formed HTML. This improves performance and SEO by providing search engines with content-rich pages.
svelte-routing:
svelte-routing does not provide built-in SSR support, as it is primarily designed for client-side routing. However, it can be used in SSR applications with some additional configuration and setup.
svelte-spa-router:
svelte-spa-router is focused on client-side routing for single-page applications and does not support server-side rendering. It is best suited for SPAs where SSR is not a requirement.

sapper:
sapper supports nested routes out of the box, allowing you to create complex routing structures by organizing your routes in a hierarchical manner. This is achieved through the file-based routing system, where nested folders represent nested routes.
svelte-routing:
svelte-routing supports nested routes by allowing <Route> components to be nested within each other. This provides flexibility in defining complex routing structures, but it requires more manual setup compared to file-based routing.
svelte-spa-router:
svelte-spa-router also supports nested routes, allowing you to define routes within routes. This feature is useful for creating more complex layouts and navigation structures within your SPA.

sapper:
sapper supports dynamic routing by allowing you to create routes with dynamic parameters using the file naming convention. For example, a file named [id].svelte will create a route that matches any value for id, enabling dynamic content rendering based on the URL.
svelte-routing:
svelte-routing supports dynamic routing through the use of route parameters defined in the <Route> component. You can access these parameters in your components, allowing for dynamic rendering based on the URL.
svelte-spa-router:
svelte-spa-router supports dynamic routing by allowing you to define routes with dynamic segments in the path. You can access these dynamic parameters in your components, making it easy to render content based on the URL.

sapper Example

// File: src/routes/[id].svelte
<script>
  export let id;
</script>

<h1>Dynamic Route</h1>
<p>Current ID: {id}</p>

svelte-routing:

svelte-routing Example

import { Router, Route } from 'svelte-routing';

<Router>
  <Route path="/user/:id" let:params>
    <User id={params.id} />
  </Route>
</Router>

svelte-spa-router:

svelte-spa-router Example

import { Router } from 'svelte-spa-router';

const routes = {
  '/user/:id': User,
};

<Router {routes} />
