I work with Vue every day at my day job and I spent about 200 hours on the side building an online Svelte course. I really enjoyed the syntax and readability of .svelte files. Local dev environment was a great developer experience and the lack of boiler plate was nice coming from a Vue background.

I built an SPA with an Express backend and my biggest complaint was the lack of an official front end router. The community based router libraries had lots of issues and quirks and I didn’t want to lock into using Sapper at the time. Svelte itself was rock solid though and I look forward to trying Sveltekit (think Next.js for Svelte) in the future.

Anyway, here comes the shameless self promotion:
