This does look like the next big thing! Do you think it will be?
Good question! I would not bet all I have, but I am pretty optimistic that Svelte is a good bet!
Are you aware of the state of js survey? Look at the result for "Front-end Frameworks": 2020.stateofjs.com/en-US/technologies/front-end-f…
Users love it. I think the "Usage" and "Awareness" will therefore follow...
This makes sense.
Also, would you be up for technical writing opportunities? Let me know. Jannik Wempe
In my experience the Svelte developer community is less friendly than others. There are certain dealbreaker CSS policies that prevent me from using Svelte in production applications, and the developers are adamant that they will not change their minds. I hope the community can persuade them but this seems unlikely. Because of that I have to stick with the big 3 frameworks, which is unfortunate because the rest of Svelte is great. Fortunately other frameworks are still beuing created and filling in the gaps, like Skruv.io.
What are those dealbreaker CSS policies?
James Tucker There are multiple issues filed related to CSS and trying to figure out workarounds, but here's the issue I created github.com/sveltejs/svelte/issues/4764 and here is another related example github.com/sveltejs/rfcs/pull/13
Brandon Sad you had to make these experiences ☹️ But it can also be seen at one of Sveltes strength: they enforce best practices (and not touching components styles from outside, besides a defined interface for that, is one of them). Only use case I can think of are libraries like Bootstrap etc.
Nevertheless, it is hard (or impossible?) to please everyone. Maybe at some point your time for Svelte will come as well 😊
Appriciate your critic perspective!
