The Vercel Svelte gang is live tomorrow - come say hi!
myth: LLM-assisted coding means everyone is forced to use The Popular Framework forever
reality: agents will happily migrate your entire app to The Good Framework
inertia is a powerful drug but we are entering a world without moats, plan accordingly

So it mostly depends on how much risk you're willing to take and how ok you are with a potential refactor here and there.
Async itself in Svelte is pretty stable (mostly bugfixing left). Remote function basics are also stabilizing, and if we change something we will provide clear migration paths and/or backwards compatibility so you have time to migrate.

Could Svelte power terminal and native apps? OSS maintainers working on the customer renderers API are aiming to make multi-platform Svelte a reality. @paolo.ricciuti.me talks through what it takes to make this ambitious API, a reality.

yes works with 5
Let me know if you run into any issues!
In the sense of it running more often that it should (or even infinite loops)?
Interesting, I thought we made pretty clear that for 99% of apps it's a drop-in upgrade (i.e. zero code changes required) and that interop between old and new is super good.
25% according to majors.nullvoxpopuli.com/q/h?minors=&... (I think we can ignore the Svelte 3 downloads at this point; they're never going to update)
Who here is on Svelte 4 yet?
Curious to hear what is stopping you from upgrading to Svelte 5, and if we can make things any easier here.
SvelteKit 2 now fully supports Vite 8
SvelteKit 3 will require it - giving additional optimizations and functionality. E.g. SvelteKit 3 will use @rolldown.rs hook filters to spend more compilation time in rust and less in JavaScript. And SvelteKit 3 adapters use only rolldown without esbuild
LET'S GO SVELTE
Almost 3 years since editable.website won 2nd place at @sveltesociety.dev SvelteHack.
Since then, I’ve been busy turning this from a prototype into something solid.
A way to build CMS-free, in-place editable websites using only Svelte.
This is v2. 🥳
What makes Svelte the right choice for modern frontend projects? And when is it not? In this blog post, @paolo.ricciuti.me breaks down the advantages and limitations of Svelte, and what that means for your next product decision.

Sometimes people ask me why I picked svelte...I put my thoughts in words here and no, it's not just a technical thing. This is my love letter to svelte 🧡
Me too :D
You know what - you're right. So this is now possible, too.
oh good point - not yet, though it should be possible to implement.
Right now the comments just don't exist for language tools, but we could add them to enable that.
This one's been bugging me for a while that we don't have it, and honestly I'm unsure why we waited so long to implement it. Now it's finally possible!
Upgrade to latest Svelte and - if you use it - latest prettier-plugin-svelte to enjoy commenting out stuff.
New in Svelte: Comments inside component/element tags!
New LayerChart docs 🎉
next.layerchart.com
Massive overhaul including over 700 isolated examples with browsing / cross referencing / StackBlitz editing, AI friendly (llms.txt), component API docs, guides, improved search, showcase, improved design, and more!

Yesterday we introduced our new @svelte.dev starter kit, today we're bringing our stream package on board:
npm i @laravel/stream-svelte
Easiest way to consume streamed responses from your backend in your Laravel + Svelte app, hands down

We just released a number of security patches across the Svelte ecosystem. If you use SvelteKit, the Vercel adapter for SvelteKit, Svelte, or devalue, you should upgrade.
The Vercel OSS Bug Bounty paid out over $14,000 for these reports!
php is cool now
Welcome to the party, @svelte.dev
New starter kit just dropped:
Laravel + Svelte + Inertia
