I clicked through the tutorial and played around a bit.

My first impression was very good, I like the concept and it feels very solid.
There is also a syntax.fm episode about Svelte: syntax.fm/show/173/hasty-treat-wes....

Is it a problem for you (or does it feel strange) that there is no company behind Svelte?

Not the OP, but the backing or lack thereof by a company doesn't bother me with respect to JS stuff. Vue, for example, has Evan You (et al) behind it, and not an established company.

If you're concerned about the future prospects of Svelte it's worth considering that Rich Harris was the initial creator of Rollup. That's doing fairly well for itself and can be found in perhaps unexpected places.
