<svelte:self>

The <svelte:self> element allows a component to include itself, recursively.

It cannot appear at the top level of your markup; it must be inside an if or each block or passed to a component’s slot to prevent an infinite loop.

<script> export let count; </script>  {#if count > 0} <p>counting down... {count}</p> <svelte:self count={count - 1} /> {:else} <p>lift-off!</p> {/if}

This concept is obsolete, as components can import themselves:

App

<script> import Self from './App.svelte' export let count; </script>  {#if count > 0} <p>counting down... {count}</p> <Self count={count - 1} /> {:else} <p>lift-off!</p> {/if}

<script lang="ts"> import Self from './App.svelte' export let count; </script>  {#if count > 0} <p>counting down... {count}</p> <Self count={count - 1} /> {:else} <p>lift-off!</p> {/if}
