Svelte slowly shapeshifting into jquery. Day after day, methodical evolution.

I'll be the first to mourn the (future) loss of $: but the video clearly shows that the changes are a pretty enticing way to make your code that little bit cleaner, and solve all of the "but Redux!" style questions.

Svelte for Apps. Svelte for Sites.

This looks like it’s moving closer to React Hooks, but using the compile step to optimize them out? Kinda like a better React Forget?

This looks great. Stores are one of the unexpected pleasures of Svelte and this seems like it will extend them both in terms of power and also grokability

"Like every other framework, we've come to the realisation that Knockout was right all along."

Nope, nope. Been there, done that, with 2-way data binding and never going back.

This is what happens when bored developers just have to improve something that doesn't need improving.
