Svelte · Senior · Question 18 of 75

What does `$state.eager` do in async Svelte?

<a href="/about" aria-current={$state.eager(pathname) === "/about" ? "page" : null}>About</a>

✓Correct answer: Shows the new value immediately even while synchronized async updates are pending, for instant feedback
2Loads state before hydration
3Disables proxying
