Although mixing React and Svelte is unusual, we can do so via svelte-preprocess-react. If you prefer to build your own custom UI, you can also use
@getpara/web-sdk
@alpha directly.Reach out to use for help with custom UI integration.Prerequisites
To use Para, you need an API key. This key authenticates your requests to Para services and is essential for integration.Don’t have an API key yet? Request access to the Developer Portal to create API keys, manage billing, teams, and more.
Installing Dependencies & Peer Dependencies
First, install the Para React SDK and needed peer dependencies, plus React dependencies using your preferred package manager:Configuring SvelteKit (Preprocessor & Polyfills)
Svelte Preprocess React
In your svelte.config.js, import and applysvelte-preprocess-react
:
svelte.config.js
Vite Plugins (Node Polyfills)
SvelteKit uses Vite under the hood. Install and configure polyfills for Node modules:vite.config.ts
:
vite.config.ts
If you prefer SSR, ensure you dynamically handle the React-based modal on the client. If you want pure client-side
usage, set
export const ssr = false;
in your page’s .ts
or .js
files for SvelteKit to skip SSR.Creating a QueryClient Instance
client/queryClient.ts
Setting Up the Para SDK
Now that you’ve installed the necessary dependencies, let’s set up the Para SDK in your SvelteKit application. This involves creating a client instance and integrating the Para Modal.Creating a Para Client Instance
As with other frameworks, you’ll need a dedicated file for your client instance (e.g.,client/para.ts
):
client/para.ts
If you’re using a legacy API key (one without an environment prefix) you must provide the
Environment
as the first argument to the ParaWeb
constructor. You can retrieve your updated API key from the Para Developer Portal at https://developer.getpara.com/Using the Para Modal in a SvelteKit Route
Let’s say you have a+page.svelte
in src/routes/
. You would use the Para Modal with the preprocessed React
component:
Beta Testing Credentials In the
BETA
Environment, you can use any email ending in @test.getpara.com
(like
dev@test.getpara.com) or US phone numbers (+1) in the format (area code)-555-xxxx
(like (425)-555-1234). Any OTP
code will work for verification with these test credentials. These credentials are for beta testing only. You can
delete test users anytime in the beta developer console to free up user slots.Customizing the Para Modal
Just like in React, you can provide any additional props to the<ParaProvider>
component. For example, customizing modal
theming:
ParaModalProps
, refer to the customization guide:
