I totally hate it when I am part of “the hype”, but @sveltejs renders all frameworks
obsolete and signals the beginning of a new era.
Thank you so much @Rich_Harris.
Svelte is the first framework that I've used since picking up React that genuinely blew
me away. In this example, writing an app in Svelte was a lot easier than writing an
app in React. YMMV.
So the day has come when I have actually fallen for a JS "framework" 😅
I honestly never got really into Vue despite how many people loved it.
React just... Not for me.
Svelte and Sapper though? 😍 OMG❤️
Fuck I tried @sveltejs and I liked it

Just went through a period of crucial React optimizations, still having mixed
performance. @sveltejs 3.0 appears and I wish the dev community would just
shift over night. This is mind-bogglingly nice to work with.
I've been notoriously grumpy about Javascript and my inability to be productive
with it. I picked up @sveltejs when v3 dropped a few days ago, and I can't stop.
It's so good! ....
Did most people here have React experience prior to working with Svelte?
I tried hard with React but Svelte made sense to me instantly

And although this exercise should try to be JS framework agnostic, picking Svelte isn't arbitrary:
- It's truly reactive and very fast, which fits nicely into Hugo's life motto.
- It compiles to regular "plain old JavaScript" with a very small runtime (utility functions). One could possibly hope/dream for a Go compiler at some point ...
- it makes total sense on so many levels (for me, at least)

Finding out about Svelte feels like a Ruby on Rails moment again. It’s been long.

this is a great idea, thanks! before we get too deep into it — we should keep links where possible (e.g. to tweets)
