The <Background /> component makes it convenient to render different types of
backgrounds common in node-based UIs. It comes with three variants: lines,
dots and cross.
<script lang="ts">
  import { writable } from 'svelte/store';
  import { SvelteFlow, Background, BackgroundVariant } from '@xyflow/svelte';
 
  const nodes = writable([]);
  const edges = writable([]);
</script>
 
<SvelteFlow nodes={nodes} edges={edges}>
  <Background bgColor="#ccc" variant={BackgroundVariant.Dots} />
