Reviewers are overwhelmingly positive on Svelte, describing it as lean, fast, and notably easy to work with. They repeatedly praise its developer experience, simple state handling, reactive model, and lightweight output, often contrasting it favorably with React and Vue. Several say it suits lightweight apps especially well and helps them build quickly without verbose code or heavy libraries. The main caveat is narrow but clear: one reviewer notes that, despite the strong experience, Svelte’s ecosystem still feels less mature than React or Vue.
Pretty excited to take Svelte 3 for a spin. We're using V2 for our widgets that are focused on interactive content, so we needed a framework that is fast and efficient, with no runtime.
Thanks for the framework! I had used React, Vue and Angular before, but Svelte was the first framework that made me enjoy front-end development.
