I don't think you're missing anything — part of Svelte's value is in the name :) Some other benefits that I like: — Styles are included so you don't need a whole other library for doing styling. Automatic component-s

I'm not sure if you're interested in discussing or just want to do a drive-by criticism, but that's actually an interesting question! Currently 1.5 zettabytes of new HDDs are sold each year which is around $65 billion. So HDD

Ah, thanks for the link! It seems what you're saying is right — the security guarantees of Chia are not the EXACT same as Bitcoin, but it's not clear to me that this means they're "weaker" for the reason you describ

I think Chia makes a pretty good case here — same Nakamoto consensus security guarantees as Bitcoin only using hard drive space instead of processor power so the ongoing energy use is vastly less. There are around ~350k full nodes today (co

Damn, love this post. Svelte is really nice to use and it's great to read about all the excellent developments in the community. Go Svelte go!

I don't feel like this page really does SvelteKit justice. SvelteKit is kind of like Next.js but taken to the next level. I know people using less mainstream frameworks tend to be a bit overzealous in their advocacy, but I've been

How do you generate your documentation? Looks good!

Yeah, it's awesome. Saved me setup time, db server money, and maintenance and haven't run into any issues with it. And if I want to test something locally with production data I just download the db file to my machine :) I was par

Ah thanks for telling me about that! Looks like in dark mode it wasn't quite working correctly.

Thanks for the love! Glad you found it useful. One of the things I enjoy about ExtensionPay is that it really de-risks monetizing extensions — even for my own extensions! I can just throw ExtPay in and see if it makes any sales without spen

I run https://extensionpay.com off a single server with a SQLite database. That feels kind of low-tech these days :) But SQLite has a lot going for it in production! https://blog.wesleyac.com/posts/consider-

Even though it's not out of beta yet, I feel really productive using SvelteKit. It's the first framework that I've used in 15 years of programming and said "Ahh, finally". I use it in production and am going to rele

Man, Svelte / SvelteKit is amazing. Svelte components run super fast (no virtual DOM), have tiny build sizes, stellar interactive documentation, and the developer experience is fire. Svelte was also just voted the #1 most loved web fra

I empathize with you. I applied for disability and am really limited in my ability to work. But I want to create income-generating businesses so I can have income that's not directly tied to my time and effort. Depending on your disabi

I feel like validation is less of an end-state and more of a process of increasing probability. Like you might start with one data point ("hey, it's really annoying when I try to do X" or there are a couple posts in online fo

Nice perseverance! I'm not really a business expert, but when I hear about your failed projects it sounds like the marketing and distribution channels weren't really fully fleshed out. It's quite hard to get people to pay for
