# What’s new in Svelte: May 2026

**[Svelte Blog](https://daily.dev/sources/svelte)** · 4 min read · 116 upvotes · 4 comments

## Summary

The May 2026 Svelte update brings TypeScript 6.0 support in SvelteKit, several improvements to remote functions including breaking changes in 2.56.0, and the experimental release of community add-ons in the Svelte CLI. Notable remote function changes include a new `field.as()` API for default form values, `hydratable` transport for richer data types, and a `run()` method on queries. The CLI now separates `sv` and `sv-utils` packages for a cleaner public API. The community showcase features new apps, UI components, state management libraries, and developer tools built with Svelte.
