I love Octopath Traveler

Svelte team is cooking 😂

I love that you no longer have to do the form data dance in SvelteKit thanks to remote functions 🔥

Async SSR in SvelteKit 👏

Let's learn how Svelte reactivity works from exploring how Svelte compiles reactivity to understanding signals by implementing them 🔥 youtu.be/M5oAYP6Rxkg

Async SSR in Svelte 👏

I tried Vivaldi and love it so far — it's customizable like Zen but uses Chrome. You can control the UI with shortcuts to hide what you don't care about and change the look with themes and CSS. There's a lot of features but you can disable everything including animations.

New video on Svelte's best kept secret feature which helps you find any element on the page in the editor. 🔥 youtu.be/Qglbt8M8H_w

finally the Svelte content I craved

I released a free Svelte course on YouTube if you're looking for something to do over the weekend in case you missed it

I'm excited to release the Svelte 5 course aimed at new and existing Svelte developers! 🔥 Learn how to make blazing fast web apps with Svelte and understand how it works with hands-on experience. youtu.be/B2MhkPtBWs4

This reminds me how Motion implements timelines using the Web Animations API xfixup.com/joyofcodedev...

I'm close to finishing recording the Svelte course after so much time — only a few sections left and more editing to achieve absolute cinema. 😤

Great video if you want to learn about SvelteKit remote functions in detail. 🔥

✨ Big O ✨ Let me take you on a visual introduction to what big O notation is in my new blog post: samwho.dev/big-o. With big O notation you can better understand how algorithms will perform in practice, finding orders of magnitude improvements often with very simple changes to your code.

I stopped using tabs and never looked back — I prefer fuzzy search where you can just do `route+` instead of searching for things with your eyes.

I started adding interactive examples to the Svelte post and it's taking forever because I wrote a book. 😂

Svelte Flow is a wonderful library for node-based UIs. I thought it used canvas but it's regular ass HTML using transforms and SVG paths so it's easy to create custom nodes and it's butter. I only wish you could animate the nodes but maybe it's a skill issue.

I wanted to release the Svelte 5 guide later since I was thinking about interactive examples but here you go if you like reading and I would love your feedback as I work on the video. 😄 joyofcode.xyz/learn-svelte

The Svelte 5 guide has everything from reactivity and how it works, when to use and avoid effects, events, bindings, components and composition, transitions and animations to using third party libraries and making external systems reactive. 🔥

I love interactive examples

I thought this would take a week and it's a month later but it's done! 👏 The Svelte video is going to be absolute cinema with a runtime to match. I'm also looking for sponsors if anyone is interested hit me up — I can even read your poetry. I cooked on this one chat 😤

when I hear about a new AI model

bro definitely automated 😂

Heads up if you use `$effect.pre` to do something before the DOM updates with async Svelte because it no longer runs before control flow blocks are updated. In this example you don't need it but it took me a while to figure out why it doesn't work.

You can now use SvelteKit remote functions under an experimental flag as of v2.27! They also added query states and being able to access typed params from props. ❤️ svelte.dev/docs/kit/rem...

How do package imports just work in the Svelte playground? It turns out external imports are turned into a `npm://$/<name>@<version>/<path>` format which gets replaced by the contents of the parsed npm tarball later. 🪄 At least I think so! Not sure how Rollup works exactly. 😅

The goat 🐐 lihautan.com/compile-svel...

I want to love Zed but it feels subpar on Linux. Everyone loves trashing Electron but this is my experience with most native apps. It might work great on Mac but I noticed people who gas it up use VS Code. For being obsessed with AI the experience is also not great.

I wanted to learn how Svelte runs in the playground and turns out it uses workers to compile and then bundle the code in the browser using Rollup when you update the content. 🔥

I still have a lot of work to do but the next Svelte video is going to be special. ❤️

A year ago I made a simple Markdown preprocessor for Svelte and it works great. It also uses a template like Twig used to search and replace the content — but I'm moving to components. If you want to learn more I have a video you can check out linked below.

Rich Harris shares his vision on what's possible for the future of Svelte — from having a local database to mirror your production database to opinions on auth and i11n being part of the framework.

Rich Harris shares how streaming real-time data might look for SvelteKit remote functions

You're also going to be able to batch queries

Rich Harris shares how caching might work for SvelteKit remote functions

I learned about thenables in JavaScript while trying to chain animations using the same API as promises so it's amusing that Svelte uses the same approach for the remote functions API. 😄 Props to @paolo.ricciuti.me for figuring this out! You need to get-a-the-then. 🤌

Rich Harris reveals the Svelte master plan

Svelte recently added `getAbortSignal` which returns an AbortSignal that aborts when the current derived or effect reruns or is destroyed. 🔥

Rich Harris talks about Svelte taking advantage of the new `using` keyword in JavaScript for explicit resource management and cleanup in your components.

Rich Harris reveals Svelte's secret weapon

The creator of Svelte shares his opinion on React Server Components.

You can now `await` promises directly in Svelte components using an experimental flag. 🔥

Async Svelte PR merged and you can try it under an experimental flag. Now I'm definitely making an updated Svelte video! ❤️

I think it's time for an update. 💀

This person shows up in every Svelte video and talks shit so they're basically royalty at this point. 😂 I was thinking what upsets them and everything makes sense once you realize they love Svelte but have to use React and this is how they cope.

Let's talk about the future of Svelte! Everyone is excited about the recent async and remote functions proposals, but why? Let's explore how data loading works in Svelte today and what problems they solve. youtu.be/NhOV9SLbJuk

In the million dollar studio working on a new video.

The YouTube algorithm blessed me with this person that works at Mozilla and streams Firefox development — it's cool to get insight into the development of a browser. youtu.be/rK6B4f-kV-4

I updated the Svelte RPC example repo with the latest changes so give it a try! 😄
