Svelte isn’t reaaaally a framework in the way React is, although they do share some commonalities.

It’s pretty innovative in that it’s not really big JS bundle, but more of a compiler for what is essentially quite vanilla JS code. In the end, if you use Svelte, then your final product will be pure HTML/CSS/JS.

I love it because it lets me bundle logically related markup, styling, AND javascript in the same .svelte file. Plus, it’s blazing fast.

React isn't a framework either, nor is it marketed as one. It doesn't have routing, state management, etc. baked in.
