What is a SvelteKit adapter and how do adapter-static and adapter-node differ?
Tests your grasp of SvelteKit's deployment abstraction. A strong answer outlines how adapters compile the app for a target platform, contrasting adapter-static's CDN-ready HTML with adapter-node's server-side request handler for Node environments.
Tests your understanding of how SvelteKit decouples application code from deployment infrastructure via the adapter pattern. A strong answer defines an adapter as a plugin that transforms Vite build output into a platform-specific deployment bundle, then sharply contrasts adapter-static, which pre-renders pages into static files for edge CDNs and cannot handle server routes without fallback configuration, with adapter-node, which emits a Node server capable of dynamic SSR and API endpoints.
