Advanced SvelteKit Environment variables $env/static/public

Some environment variables can be safely exposed to the browser. These are distinguished from private environment variables with a PUBLIC_ prefix.

Add values to the two public environment variables in .env:

PUBLIC_THEME_BACKGROUND="steelblue"
PUBLIC_THEME_FOREGROUND="bisque"

Then, import them into src/routes/+page.svelte:

src/routes/+page
<script>
	const PUBLIC_THEME_BACKGROUND = 'white';
	const PUBLIC_THEME_FOREGROUND = 'black';
	import {
		PUBLIC_THEME_BACKGROUND,
		PUBLIC_THEME_FOREGROUND
	} from '$env/static/public';
</script>
