Adding Analytics

Adding analytics to your SaaS Starter project is optional.

Since each analytics platform has different setup instructions, we've created a guide instead of adding it in code.

PostHog

Create a PostHog Account
Install PostHog JS Library
- Run npm install posthog-js in your terminal. This will add PostHog dependencies to your package.json and package-lock.json.
Set Up PostHog
- in src/routes/+layout.svelte add PostHog to the script section following the Posthog Svelte Guide. Note: ensure you’re logged into PostHog so that the code includes your unique API key automatically.
Test analytics
- Click around and view a few pages on your site to generate some events. You can view these events in PostHog to ensure tracking is active.

Google Analytics

Follow the Google Analytics Guide to add Google Analytics to your project.

The ideal place to add Google Analytics is in src/routes/+layout.svelte.
