Me neither, but I've been around long enough to remember the handlebars.js days. To someone that's only used React I imagine that at first sight things like {#if} {/if} look ugly as hell. To those people I can only say to stick it out: it starts to feel very natural very quickly.
- papertokyo 7y agoThis was my experience. I've been working with Vue for the last few years so Svelte's syntax for loops and conditionals looked a bit funky...but after using it I realised that it's a lot more readable and enjoyable to work with.
