Codemod Description

This codemod is designed to replace specific patterns in TypeScript files with updated code logic. It transforms instances of goto($A) into window.location.href = $A; when the $A value is a URL starting with http:// or https://. This refactor makes external navigation more explicit by using window.location.href.

This codemod improves error handling in SvelteKit by updating the way errors are returned in the load function. In SvelteKit 1, errors were handled inconsistently, often missing the status property or failing to trigger the handleError hook. SvelteKit 2 standardizes error handling by automatically including the status and message properties in error responses.

This codemod simplifies error handling and redirects in your TypeScript project by replacing throw error() and throw redirect() statements with direct calls to error() and redirect(). This change aligns with modern practices and results in cleaner, more readable code.
