Conclusion
Like any other attribute, you can specify classes with a JavaScript attribute. Here, we could add a flipped
class to the card:
App
<button
class="card {flipped ? 'flipped' : ''}"
onclick={() => flipped = !flipped}
>
This works as expected — if you click on the card now, it’ll flip.
We can make it nicer though. Adding or removing a class based on some condition is such a common pattern in UI development that Svelte allows you to pass an object or array that is converted to a string by clsx.
App
<button
class={["card", { flipped }]}
onclick={() => flipped = !flipped}
>
This means ‘always add the card
class, and add the flipped
class whenever flipped
is truthy’.
For more examples of how to combine conditional classes, consult the class
documentation.
