Lightening fast. I really like the streaming feature. And the smart routing to update a part of a page easily.
intuitive, super fast
Probably the best web framework available today.
Hands down the most productive framework to build a web app. It just fits my mental model.
I chose Svelte for performance and simplicity. The result: a crisp UX, fewer abstractions, and faster ship cycles. Big thanks to the Svelte and SvelteKit teams!
Worked with Svelte for a couple of years already. It's a good framework for lightweight apps.
Lightweight frontend framework that allows a fast, reactive, and simple dashboard experience. I considered plain html paird with tailwindcss but at the end of the day I went with SvelteKit because of it's popularity and ease to implement functionality.
Building BestShelf with Svelte was a joy. The framework's elegant syntax and excellent performance made creating smooth animations and responsive interfaces effortless. Definitely my go-to choice for future projects.
Svelte Kit was used to build autoauditoring.com, smooth experience, served all the needs we wanted and easy learning curve!
The framework I used to build the application. Svelte remains a delight to work with and for this application's use case and client focused architecture, the state management solutions provided by runes have made it possible to scale without worrying about the flow of data.
Honestly, I just find Svelte fun to write. After working with the big frameworks, it feels like a breath of fresh air. There's almost no boilerplate, so it feels like I'm just writing clean HTML, CSS, and JavaScript again. Because it’s a compiler, it doesn’t ship a heavy library to the user’s browser. The final app is tiny and fast, which was perfect for a simple tool like this. It’s just less ceremony and more building.
Svelte offers a reactive, component-based architecture that compiles to highly efficient JavaScript, resulting in faster runtime performance and smaller bundle sizes. SvelteKit enhances this with server-side rendering, routing, and a flexible framework for building web applications. Together, they streamline development, improve user experience, and simplify state management.
Svelte gives us the performance and simplicity we need without the runtime overhead that other frameworks bring. Writing Svelte feels natural and productive, and the compiled output is exactly what we want for a tool that needs to be fast and lightweight.
