My definition of "modern React" is Svelte. 😄

Svelte and React are pretty different in philosophy and the way they work (We develop a Svelte SDK that we use in our React main app).

And Solid… is more like Svelte imo (very targeted updates). See Dan Abramohov comment in "React vs. Signal".

To each its own, I guess. Ever since I met Svelte, any React-like framework is just meh. Svelte is so far ahead of the competition, it is not even a fair contest.

Hi @webjose,
i'm curious what made you fall for svelte. i've worked mostly on react. never really tried svelte. what does svelte offers that makes it ahead of competition

React is among the worst performers nowadays. Svelte is among the better performers.
Svelte's reactivity is easier and more targetted, making its API simpler. For example, no need to even learn things like memoization.
Svelte is a complete framework that provides solution for scoped CSS and state management. React does not.
Svelte code is less error-prone because Svelte is simpler. Svelte can be learned in one day. React? Months, perhaps.

Those, from the top of my head.
