# 🔧 Options

presets:

{
  "svelte/html-self-closing": [
    "error",
    "default" // or "all" or "html" or "none"
  ]
}

config object:

{
  "svelte/html-self-closing": [
    "error",
    {
      "void": "always", // or "never" or "ignore"
      "normal": "never", // or "always" or "ignore"
      "svg": "always", // or "never" or "ignore"
      "never": "never", // or "always" or "ignore"
      "component": "always", // or "never" or "ignore"
      "svelte": "always" // or "never" or "ignore"
    }
  ]
}

presets:

• default - MathML and non-void HTML elements should have a closing tag; otherwise, they should be self-closing.
• all - all elements should be self-closing (unless they have children)
• html - html-compliant - only void elements and svelte special elements should be self-closing
• none - no elements should be self-closing

config object:

• void ("always" in default preset)… Style of HTML void elements
• normal ("never" in default preset)… Style of other elements
• svg ("always" in default preset)… Style of SVG
• math (never in default preset)… Style of MathML
• component ("always" in default preset)… Style of svelte components
• svelte ("always" in default preset)… Style of svelte special elements (<svelte:head>, <svelte:self>)

Every config object option can be set to

• “always” (<SomeComponent />)
• “never” (<SomeComponent></SomeComponent>)
• “ignore” (either <SomeComponent /> or <SomeComponent></SomeComponent>)
