From the changlog on Github:

The new version brings:

    - even better performance,
    - a more granular reactivity system with runes,
    - more expressive template syntax with snippets and event attributes,
    - native TypeScript support,
    - and backwards compatibility with the previous syntax!

I learned Svelte 3 over a year ago and I found it very pleasant. Unlike React, Svelte is an integrated framework, no "pick your router" nonsense, I don't want to be picking a router.

I like the direction Svelte going in, the old syntax was ok but not great.

I wonder how this new Svelte compares with some of the other new kids on the block like solid.js and alpine.js.

Here’s the release on GitHub: https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte/releases/tag/svelte%405.0...

Probably a better link for this post?

nit: >React, Svelte is an integrated framework

You're talking about SvelteKit. Svelte does not have a router.

We use Svelte 4.0 in production and it performs beautifully; it rarely is the cause of our frustrations. Excited to try the new version.

Lately I’ve also been wondering about the relationship and correlation between software writing skills and writing skills.
