Very watchable deep-dive on using Svelte custom elements in an Angular app from @kylecordes, including some excellent feedback and discussion around trade-offs: youtube.com/watch?v=BzZ_OWqk…

Svelte is now smarter about passing data to custom elements (before it would naively pass everything as a DOM attribute) — which means we pass all the tests on custom-elements-everywhere.c… !

For our hack week project this week we tried out @sveltejs. Really nice experience. Very easy to get started and not much of an API to learn. I like that it builds in state management too - doesn't feel like you need to add any other packages

🚨 Major new Sapper release over the weekend: 0.15 overhauls the router to enable nested routes with custom nested layouts, in a way that's very efficient and requires no configuration. It takes the best parts of existing approaches to routing: 1/

in short, we think you're going to love it. Huge thanks to the many people who helped shape this feature (the Svelte community is friendly, whip-smart and brings a ton of experience from other frameworks — React, Vue, Ember etc — join us! discordapp.com/channels/4579…) 5/
