Yup. I read that too.
It’s also important to note that performance is only one part of the pie. I think developer experience (also known as DX) is important too.
Although Svelte follows the similar path of SFC’s like Vue, and I truly believe this format for setting up your code is easier to reason about overall (so good for DX) than mixing JS with HTML, there are situations where going down to render function level is also necessary and that is where Svelte, I believe, misses out. Its @html directive is nothing like what is needed from what I can tell. I can only imagine such “html in JS” code will look mofugly and even harder to reason about than some of the bad React JSX code out there.
Anyone whose used Svelte at any kind of advanced level, please do chime in and correct me, if I am wrong.
