- gatinsama 2y agoI have looked at it but not updated yet, and I don't think I will. v5 looks more like React (effect, props), but it still keeps much of the simplicity from Svelte. I think they wanted to be more explicit so it better supports larger applications with fewer surprises. I don't love the fact that they are creating new abstractions to learn when everyone loved the previous ones, but I can see why they did that. And I think that I'll still have a pleasant experience with v5, but don't quote me on that.
- Pepe1vo 2y agoI've just spent past week building a medium complex web app for editing configs at $work, so I can chime on this. Having worked with earlier versions of sveltekit in the past, I have to say the new reactivity system is not that bad and pretty easy to wrap your head around. Once you're used to the runes (there's like 4 you have to remember) you can just focus on building stuff and it's really quite a pleasant and productive dev experience. I've gotten multiple compliments from people about the speed and quality I was able to deliver this with and that's in large part due to sveltekit. I do have to give a shout out to good ol' bootstrap for allowing me to build something that looks good, works on mobile and is just easy.
- rtrgrd 2y agoI've been working with svelte 5, and to be honest, I was also quite put off initially by the change in syntax. Over time though I feel like the changes are quite intuitive and helps remove a lot of complexity especially with stores etc. (Also thank god svelte 5 is cross comaptible with svelte 4)
