Welcome! We won't be reconsidering anytime soon. Bluesky is a better experience. It has a Svelte starter pack (bsky.app/starter-pack...) and Svelte feed (bsky.app/profile/paol...) that makes it easier to stay up-to-date with what's going on in the Svelte community. I hope you'll give these a try!

I prefer "don't set state in an effect"

I just learned about github.com/KTibow/m3-sv.... If you want to stick with material design, you might prefer it as an alternative to SMUI.

GitHub - KTibow/m3-svelte: Implements the Material 3 design system in Svelte, cleanly, robustly, and across disciplines.

Yes!! Especially now that require(esm) is available it's time for everyone to move!

Oh, I missed that Paolo replied with both of these suggestions 😆 Well great minds think alike!

Not sure what you mean for the CSS issue

I probably wouldn't use stores for new code. They're still supported because they were more heavily used in v4

As I recall, most of the code examples these days are in TS and there's a toggle between TS/JS. Is there a specific place you had trouble?

You can use this SvelteKit setting for a hash-based router: svelte.dev/docs/kit/con...

shadcn-svelte is probably the most popular UI library for Svelte

Maybe it could be auto-generated from the replacements repo

Aren't they chubby though?

Maybe something like a ferret would be more svelte? 😆

It'd be awesome to switch `@vercel/nft` to it one day since `glob` is responsible for almost half of its dependency graph

It took me a long time to discover you could add your own feeds. Making that more discoverable would go a long way towards fixing the issue

lil' treat for all you weekend builders: Svelte now has an official MCP server, courtesy of resident bot wranglers @paolo.ricciuti.me and @khromov.se 🤖

Awesome!

How is Svelte support implemented? Does it use the Svelte parser or a re-implementation in rust?

Does it just check the contents of script blocks or does it try to do any checks of the template contents? How many rules from eslint-plugin-svelte might be available in Biome?

The Svelte train is approaching 300km/h.

👀 Something very exciting is coming soon if you're using AI with Svelte. Watch this space! #svelte #ai

We're really just taking submissions internally. We should update the docs somewhere to mention that. If there's some popular package we missed you can just let me know here

There's a list that Svelte Society maintains as well. I think we'd like to coordinate with them so that more packages can be displayed there and then we can discover which ones are the most used to consider for inclusion. They're currently working on some updates on their side first though

If you happen to be using Svelte with Astro, I have plenty of tips to share

Ben McCann @benmccann.com · 5d

@43081j.com are you aware of any others?

1

Ben McCann @benmccann.com · 5d

yes, the list was largely hand curated. Though we haven't been able to personally use each package, so I'm sure there are probably some we're missing and maybe a few that shouldn't be there

We've got a material UI package listed under "Component libraries": svelte.dev/packages#com...

One of my very first projects when I got involved with Svelte years ago was working on this when it was just a readme in a separate repo (github.com/sveltejs/com...).

This feels like a nice bookend as I have been gradually shifting my focus away from the web and towards robotics

Thanks to @puruvj.dev @jyc.dev and @rich-harris.dev for making this possible! This was a real team effort and a reminder of why it's so fun to work on Svelte in a collaborative fashion with an amazingly talented group of people.

svelte.dev/packages is now live!

It's a convenient and easily discoverable place to find a sampling of high quality packages in the ecosystem. We hope it will give confidence in the Svelte ecosystem to newcomers and help them get started more easily.
