Conclusion
Sometimes you don’t know in advance which element needs to be rendered. Rather than having a long list of {#if ...}
blocks...
App
{#if selected === 'h1'}
<h1>I'm a <code><h1></code> element</h1>
{:else}
<p>TODO others</p>
{/if}
...we can use <svelte:element>
:
App
<svelte:element this={selected}>
I'm a <code><{selected}></code> element
</svelte:element>
The this
value can be any string, or a falsy value — if it’s falsy, no element is rendered.
