This PR implements support for switch statements via
{#switch ...} ... {/switch}and{:case ...}. There is a relevant RFC, though I only found it after already implementing the feature.Example of valid syntax:
{#switch "foo"} <span>this is the default if nothing matches</span> {:case "foo")} <span>this will be displayed</span> {:case "bar"} <span>this will not be displayed</span> {/switch}Like with
{#await ...}you can also place a case in the switch block if you do not need a default case, e.g.{#switch "foo" case "foo"} <span>this will be displayed</span> {:case "bar"} <span>this will not be displayed</span> {/switch}Tests are mostly stolen from the
{#if ...}implementation.The svelte language-tools would also have to be updated to work with this, I have started on that but am struggling to get the extension to correctly work in vscode even without any changes.
