SvelteKit + ElectronRemote Functions live dataVirtualised data tables

Contributed to Kurrent Navigator, a high-performance desktop administration client for KurrentDB built with Electron and Svelte 5 — available on macOS, Linux (Flathub), and Windows. The project embraces SvelteKit’s newest server-driven primitives to deliver fast, continuously updating interfaces over enterprise database backends.

  • Adopted SvelteKit’s Remote Functions to build a type-safe live data layer that continuously streams cluster stats, connectors, and stream data into reactive components.
  • Implemented the Connectors management interface end-to-end, built on a dynamic, easily extensible form system with custom interactive inputs.
  • Built complex, desktop-grade UI components, including resizable data tables with virtualised rendering that stay smooth across massive datasets.
  • Engineered safety-critical admin flows — granular role-based access control, resilient error recovery, and quorum-aware cluster shutdown and failover controls.
