Understanding Svelte (vs React)

Svelte's approach to framework development brings a paradigm shift to the table, with a compiler pass that produces a faster, thinner output. This video takes a look at what that means.

Just have to say it. Your presentation style is off the charts. Your calming voice is almost ASMR to me. The content is also very well structured. I am looking forward to seeing more of your work. :)

I don't know much about React, nothing about Svelte, but I think I understand what you explained in the video: the relationship of dependencies as defined by the "=" sign. Thanks.

This is a completely new style of video to me. Very interesting stuff, thank you!

This video is a piece of art! Thanks for all the effort!

With my 2 years of experience, the biggest downside is the overlooking of reactivity. When does something react — and how does that impact performance. This is especially true as an application grows.

I thank YT algorithms that I stumbled upon this video and your channel. What a great explanation. You made it easy for me to understand Svelte and how it's different with React. I originally wanted to try SolidJS but the library I needed for my experimentation only supports vue, react, svelte, and angular.

Thank you so much! 🙌

I just started Svelte and I am still struggling with this because it changes the way I think about projects. The base way I think about solving a problem doesn’t work the same with Svelte. But I am very excited about the possibilities Svelte specifically Sveltekit does seem like magic.

Impressed by your presentation: camera angels, lightings and editing. You got a new sub.

The way you demonstrate Svelte is MAGICAL! #impressive

Im new to svelte (not react and nodejs though).
But this video made it perfectly understandable.

Although tbh I want to learn even more about the behind the scenes and the caveats.

Wonderful explanation. Love the way you present the video.

Those sound effects are pretty neat. Makes quite an imerssion and brings a suspense vibe haha

I‘m shipping production applications with Svelt for almost 4 years now, and I have to say I can‘t imagine using anything else for front-end development.
Svelte does not litter my head with some unattainable "philosophy" or a way of "thinking in this very popular library", it simply gives me an intuitive way for solving day-to-day tasks and saves me from wasting my time on the adoption of already existing web solution for a fancy Virtual DOM-powered library.
I sincerely recommend all give it a try and start spending your time on solving business problems rather than boiling your head with a proper way of writing CSS in a goofy JSX.

as a backend developer, I understood mostly nothing, but I love your accent!

i've been working with svelte for over a year now and to me it feels more Javascript-y than React, it feels like JavaScript with an automatic binding, which is exactly what I need of my UI framework. Svelte 5 to me is like "Finally, web done right" and I can't wait for it to be production ready

This 5 minute relaxing video > 30 minutes sweaty squinting at the docs

Thank for such an interesting video! Could you please share articles/videos that are really worth reading/watching and elped you to understand how Svelte works?

[udaykumar]

Great video, but why is your video camera focused so low? lol

Really well presented.
