S
Svelte contact form
Verified against Svelte 5.x · June 2026
If you're using Svelte without SvelteKit (e.g. embedded in another app), you still get a clean contact form: an `on:submit` handler, a `fetch`, and a reactive status. FormLoom handles storage, spam, and email.
The code
Bind `on:submit` with a handler that serializes the form and POSTs to FormLoom. Use a reactive `status` variable for the UI.
SvelteKit page
src/routes/contact/+page.svelte
<!-- src/routes/contact/+page.svelte -->
<script>
let status = "idle";
async function submit(e) {
e.preventDefault();
const res = await fetch("https://formloom.vercel.app/api/submit/YOUR_ACCESS_KEY", {
method: "POST",
headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json", Accept: "application/json" },
body: JSON.stringify(Object.fromEntries(new FormData(e.target))),
});
status = (await res.json()).success ? "ok" : "error";
}
</script>
{#if status === "ok"}

- Call `e.preventDefault()` in your handler.
- Without SvelteKit there's no server action — the client fetch is the integration.

FAQ
No. A plain Svelte component with a client fetch works anywhere Svelte runs.
