So.. I have missed the point in the article where you discussed the benefit of the Virtual DOM vs Svelte pure JS compilation.

The Virtual DOM has been praised for long time and it's one of the main factor of the success of React and Vue, how does Svelte compare in that sense?

Just my two cents, I think it takes time to build virtual DOM and compare them while Svelte can avoid that? But for me personally it's the less code, less bundle size, built in animation etc that provides a good dev experience that attracts me to favor Svelte.
