Svelte

“I'm just sad svelte didnt behave better because of the LLM reading migration guide on every answer”

“In my personal use case, that would be Svelte 5 for me and I'm sure it will be something else for everyone.”

“picking (for your llm) one of those superfast frameworks like svelte in ny experience”

“The accessibility guardrails in Svelte are in particular something that I imagine steers agents in the right direction.”

“Other advantages of Svelte over React/Vue is that it does not require a Svelte specific library or wrapper”

“Needing bespoke svelte-specific tooling for _everything_ is pretty annoying when it comes to developer experience”

“svelte doesn't have a shadow dom that gets recomputed all the time that it would be a significant performance and memory benefit for most apps”

“For most of 2024-2025 frontier models really struggled with Svelte 4 vs 5 compatibility issues.”

“LLMs are better at writing Svelte than React, and then you also get a faster frontend by default.”

“It's just a more intuitive framework, fewer pitfalls, cleaner reactivity, and is much more performant out of the box.”

“I've seen a few benchmarks where svelte results in less tokens than React frameworks to complete the task.”

“I kind of like Svelte and Vue in that regard, where your CSS, HTML and JS lives all together”

“A lot of the front end frameworks add a lot of complexity, even nice frameworks like Svelte”

“Svelte struck the right DX balance for me between helpful framework tools and features, but not far removed from vanilla JS, HTML, and CSS.”

“Svelte 5's runes are especially powerful because they let reactivity escape the component boundary.”

“Instead, look at Svelte or Solid.js, as they integrate nicely with imperative DOM-oriented JS libraries”

“the functionality might already be built into Svelte, and 2) you can use any JavaScript library directly”

“I had main issue with smaller ecosystem. Very limited components and everything else is geared towards React.”

“They should just rewrite that laggy UI in Svelte, Solid, or even vanilla JS. Any of those would work.”

“It's a pleasure to use, I especially like how similar it is to writing plain HTML / CSS / JS.”

“There are way better libraries to write maintainable code in (svelte, solid, and even vue is better FFS).”

“Svelte is built directly on web standards so knowing it strengthens your command of core JS”

“it was so dead simple that I built my first basic webapp with 0 javascript, css or html experience in 3 days”

“the "big ones" (angular/react/vue/svelte) have been around for YEARS at this point and IMO mostly stablized”

“I suspect Svelte's heavy lift with compile-time reactivity came largely from trying to infer reactive intent”

“Runes allowed simpler Svelte syntax while making it more clear, consistent, flexible, and composable.”

“Your examples, Vue and Svelte, give you build-time predictable output with scoped CSS without Tailwind.”

“With the introduction of proxy-based reactivity using runes, that is largely a solved problem in svelte.”

“just like svelte this is elegant exactly until you realize that it is not possible to correctly track all the dependencies”

“SolidJS and Svelte implement react's developer ergonomics, while having better performance”

“Its simplicity and the straightforward reactivity model fit the kind of UI updates this game needs.”

“It's too new, and there's too much good Svelte code out there used in training that doesn't use Svelte 5.”

“Svelte seems to be the one that is the least against that, but I still don't see anybody using it that way”

“the developer experience provided by the compiler model used in Svelte and React is much nicer to work with”

“I enjoy writing mostly SSR apps with just a few specific Svelte components mounted as custom elements. It works really well.”

“I've mostly been using Svelte for the past half-decade instead but still hope for something more elegant to come along.”

“very lightweight but probably not a good choice if your app quickly grows in complexity”

“React and Svelte and the rest can read clunkily at times but they have a clear separation of concerns and I’m glad for that.”

“Radically simpler reactivity that doesn't require 20 different hooks to do the same thing.”

“clean encapsulation of logic and state while maintaining standards compliance and framework independence”
