Replying to @sveltejs
The bulk of the new design is explained in these RFCs, which — hell, let's go ahead and do it now — are entering their final comment period, which will close on 28 Dec. Go! mobile.twitter.com/sveltejs/…
Psyched about the progress we've made towards version 3 — it's really coming together. Big changes coming though, so do familiarize yourself with the RFCs if you haven't already: • bit.ly/reactive-assignmentsbit.ly/reactive-storesbit.ly/reactive-declarations

Apparently this tweet took some people by surprise, so: @sveltejs is currently getting a massive overhaul. We're rethinking the authoring experience from the ground up, and we think you're going to love it. (After the initial 'wait, really?' shock, anyway — it's quite... radical)
psst — the 'newer, better Svelte' is coming in early January

Amazing how intuitive @sveltejs 3 is going to be! For example this is all it takes to setup basic painting :) svelte-3-repl.now.sh/repl?ve…

We'll be moving those RFCs into a final comment period soon, so if you have thoughts on the direction we're going in, now is your chance to share them. (Also, drop by the #future channel in our Discord server discord.gg/yy75DKs)

Building a component for a specific framework significantly limits your reach. "Nice file upload component! Oh too bad, it uses Angular but I use React." Build your components with @SvelteJS for portability, then use those in your framework of choice.

With this trio of RFCs... • bit.ly/reactive-assignmentsbit.ly/reactive-storesbit.ly/reactive-declarations ...we're trying to move beyond microbenchmarks and bundle size wars, and ask ourselves what UI dev could be like if the experience were designed from the ground up...

What if JavaScript were a truly reactive programming language? let a = 1; let b <= a * 2; a = 2; console.log(b); // 4 We've been asking that question in the @sveltejs chatroom this week, and here's our proposal: bit.ly/reactive-declarations

I gave a little love to the @sveltejs package for Curi (curi.js.org/packages/@curi/s…) and added a "Navigating" component for cancelling async navigation. The package isn't quite up to feature parity with the React version, but it's getting there. codesandbox.io/s/github/pshr…

I'm under no illusions about @sveltejs being a tiny fish in a very large pond, but it's heartening to see that so many developers are excited about the future of web dev that Svelte represents. Onward! 2018.stateofjs.com

#FrameworkSummit2018 was lucky to have @little_bret share all about Svelte and how this framework helps solve the web's JavaScript bloat crisis. @sveltejs turns your templates into tiny, framework-less vanilla JavaScript. Learn more by watching Bret's talk youtube.com/watch?v=IRoxHYKC…

Svelte’s goal is to make apps smaller period and to provide a good developer and user experience at the same time.

Switched the @sveltejs RealWorld demo app over to Rollup (from webpack), saving 29%, which means the entire app is now comfortably smaller than (for example) React+ReactDOM. It's code-split though, so any given page is a fraction of that size github.com/sveltejs/realworl…

Greatly appreciated building another @economics tracker in @sveltejs... If you haven't already, please check it out and try it out! (Thanks @Rich_Harris and company!) svelte.technology/
