I had a conversation with some web devs and said I was thinking of starting a new project in SvelteKit.

They said, “Okay, fine, but you really should look at React/NextJS first.”

I looked and React/Next requires about twice as much code as SvelteKit for the same tasks.

People must understand that SvelteKit is the only framework (that I know of) that uses a compiler!

That means tons of syntactic sugar. See for yourself:

@cliftonlabrum had they used SvelteKit? 🤷‍♂️

@markhughes Nope. I hope they try it. Once you use SvelteKit, you’ll probably never want to go back to React. 😄

@cliftonlabrum agreed. I was just starting to learn React when I watched Rich give a long presentation about his new baby and decided to look at that. What a breath of fresh air that was.

I don't do much web dev, but all I do is client side/static and it is perfect for making such sites work like the best server-side stack, and so so much easier to learn than React (or Angular before it). Shadow DOMs should be confined to the scrap heap of shame. 🥳
