Getting Started

Welcome

What VOID SvelteKit Theme is, who it is for, and what problem it solves.

What VOID is

VOID is a SvelteKit theme for content-driven sites. Layout and content are separated. Content lives in JSON and Markdown. SEO meta is generated from page frontmatter. Routes render layout. Collections hold content.

It is a codebase, not a page builder. You get a working structure and a small set of components. You change copy in data files, not in components.

What problem it solves

Building a SvelteKit site from scratch means setting up routing, layouts, SEO meta, content loading, and a way to edit copy. That is a few days of work before the first page looks right.

VOID gives you that structure already wired:

  • Routing with nested layouts and dynamic routes.
  • Content collections in JSON and Markdown.
  • SEO meta from frontmatter, not copy-paste.
  • Optional Decap CMS for browser-based editing.

Who it fits

  • Developers who want a SvelteKit starting point with content collections and SEO already wired.
  • Small teams that need a readable codebase one or two people can maintain.
  • Content teams that want browser-based editing through the $129 edition with Decap CMS.

Who it does not fit

  • Projects that need drag-and-drop layout editing. VOID is not a page builder.
  • Projects that need a full backend with auth, payments, and dashboards out of the box. VOID is a marketing and content theme, not an app starter.

Editions

  • Code Only — $69: the SvelteKit source, content collections, SEO meta.
  • Code + Decap CMS — $129: everything above, plus a Decap CMS setup for browser-based editing.
