Yo #developers, #dev bubble, i need your thoughts. If got an older #Vue Project that needs some refactoring. Should i try to fix it, or rebuild the whole thing in #Svelte? I mean, it will be a ton of work, but it sounds like a lot of fun 🤔
Remaking in #Svelte sounds like a fun transition! Unless you cherish #Vue#DevTools or you make some one-off demo without preprocessing, there is no reason not to try a compile-first workflow with a lot cleaner syntax that Svelte has to offer.
If you have a larger project on your hands, wrap it in #Astro. This meta framework supports Vue/Svelte/Lit/etc components, which makes further migrations easier.
What good sources have people found to find remote Fullstack Engineer roles in UK/Europe? I'm primarily aiming for B-Corp or Tech for Good. Any leads would be greatly appreciated 🙏
Migrating from CodeIgniter #PHP to #SvelteKit is so easy and pleasant.
By building the site 15 years ago, and modernizing it today, I skipped over the awkward middle stage of making an API & fetching data to render it in the browser.
SvelteKit's form actions let you build a fast site that even works without #JavaScript, which means I'm going from server-side rendering with links & forms, to server-side rendering with links & forms. Except now I have the power of #Svelte to make it way nicer!
"The state of the art is no longer in finding more sophisticated ways to build JavaScript or CSS. It's not to build at all. To lean on HTTP/2 and the now universal support for import maps to avoid bundling."
When Rich Harris and the #Svelte team switched off #typescript (to JSDoc comments), people freaked! But that’s mostly because they didn’t understand the whole story…
Thanks to Enrico Bertini for sharing this awesome read by Connor Rothschild about a 'framework-first' aproach to #datavisualization. I've never seen #Svelte and #D3 compared for visualization so clearly before. Really well done.
#Svelte 5 with Runes changes the game. As app authors it requires us to be a bit more explicit with reactivity but for svelte framework authors this approach greatly reduces complexity and unlocks huge performance boost and way less reactivity pitfalls/ bugs
This is extremely cool. SVELTROID: the HUD and visors from Metroid Prime, recreated with #SvelteKit and Three.js. Even scanning works! The world is rendered via Three, but the HUD is all #Svelte components. Shared by Tyler Johnson in the Svelte Discord's showcase channel.

Works best with desktop Chrome, since you need to use keyboard controls.
This D3.js data visualization I’m working on started as a page on my (Next.js) blog, but I think it’ll be better long-term to have it in its own repo.
After some planning for what I’ll need, I think The Pudding’s Svelte Starter Repo is the way to go. Coming from a group whose primary focus is D3.js data Viz, this looks far better than anything I could come up with.
Anyone have any recommended resources for learning Svelte?
Working on my PHP side project, feeling an intense pull to migrate it to SvelteKit. But I know this is the biggest trap every coder with a side project can relate to - working on architectural changes instead of features. On the other hand, I love #SvelteKit and can make this thing way better with Svelte & SvelteKit than I ever will be able to with PHP. #Svelte + #PHP might be the way, except I lose the server-side rendering. Send help pls. :blob_dizzy_face:
