World should pause until I finish learning React.

*new JS framework comes out*
me: "ah sh*t, here we -go- learn again"

[neptunemike]

Then out comes job postings saying 5 years experience minimum with Svelte ?

Waiting for that day when JS frameworks will run out of names.

You say "it depends", I would just say "yes" (as of 2021, anyway). Svelte and Svelte Kit are by far simpler and less painful than the other front end frameworks I've looked at (including React and Vue). The official Svelte tutorial is very easy to work through in a short time. This can give you a good idea of how to use Svelte and how pleasant it is to work with. It's so quick and easy to learn, compared to the others, that the answer to "Should you learn it?" is a definite "Yes".

As a front end HTML/CSS guy, I appreciate how close to the the html this framework is.

About two months back, I started learning web development and of course react was the first choice due to community support. It would've been fine only learning react, but you eventually need redux and other bloated libraries which are over complicated.

I looked at svelte 3 days ago and I am ready to create my frontend with stores and server side rendering already! Svelte all the way!!!!

Every day we're coming closer to death and a new JavaScript framework 😭

Curious to hear more re: features and "additional improvements" (still a little foggy on what that 2nd one entails). I'm scarcely acquainted with Svelte, but it strikes me as much more on par with Vue in terms of features. It provides support for transitions & animations, state management, component slots and similar templating, state-side rendering, etc, although a router is conspicuously missing. Plus it's got some neat features for async that none of the other frameworks can boast. I also gather that one of the big selling points of Svelte is not what it adds, but the fact that it doesn't require a lot of boilerplate. I wonder if anyone who's tried it in a project can attest to that.

Svelte: 5090 stars this month.
Vue: 3238 stars this month.

Oh for fuck's sake, not another one!

[juancpgo]

@maxedapps, do you still hold the same view on the comparison since Svelte 3?

[sanketss]

Svelte surely has great potential I like its approach and would give it a try for sure. This 9 ish minutes helps me understand where Svelte sits. Thanks :)

Among its advantages over React (for me, at least), Svelte makes it much easier to work with D3.

From the talk i watched from Rich Harris, Svelte doesnt need to give you any "additional improvements" as in the case of React Suspense because it doesn't have the problem of blocking ui during things like input changes that block the dom.

Hey Maximillian, glad to see a video on Svelte. Did you see that Stencil got v1 ? Do you plan to make a video on Stencil or more widely on Web Components ?

[musicvista]

I am trying to install vue/cli 3 but i can't install in windows 10 b/se of AppData please if can help?

[budokan]

Svelte is definitely the right solution. Once you meet Svelte, you never want to waste time with others.

I was about to learn Svelte last year but I saw the compiler boring but I think that's the best way for fast speed.
