## What it is
svelte-spa-router is a hash-based router library for Svelte 5 single-page applications with a minimal footprint. It supports route parameters, regular expression routes, active links, programmatic navigation, and code splitting via dynamic imports.

## Use cases
- add client-side routing to a Svelte SPA
- route without needing server-side URL rewriting
- handle route parameters like /book/:id in a Svelte app
- lazy-load route components for code splitting
- highlight active navigation links
- build a fully static SPA hosted on any static file server

## When to choose
- building a static single-page app with Svelte 5 where SEO is not a concern
- you want hash-based routing that works without any backend server
- you need a tiny, simple router with route params, regex routes, and code splitting

## When to avoid
- you need SEO-friendly clean URLs with the HTML5 history API
- your app is server-rendered (SSR) or uses SvelteKit's built-in routing
- you are not using Svelte
