Why I choose Svelte
(mainmatter.com)
These were exactly the things that drew me to Svelte as well. And yes, the author is right. If they had claimed that you should use Svelte for everything I would have immediately stopped trusting them.
Svelte is very nice for backend engineers to use for a frontend framework. It makes way more sense from a mental model, and it's incredibly lightweight, at least from what I've seen in other frameworks.
It's the exact same way I feel about Ruby. You definitely shouldn't be using it for everything, even most things, but the stuff it's good at it beats Python by a mile. And it's so much more pleasant to use.
