After reading some of your excellent posts I wanted to try SolidJS but chose Svelte instead partly because your promotion of Marko//Fluurt as well confused me. On initial glance they appeared to be competing frameworks - "Wait, what, which one does he want me to use?" I knew nothing about any of them would need to do some research - " or I can just get started with Svelte "

Congrats on the release of 1.0 - it's given me some impetus to give it a try but I am now comfortable with Svelte. Just a heads up that for newbies like me who just want to get started the decision to chose one framework over another can be as simple as that.

Of course. Marko is incredibly good where it's good (MPAs), but JavaScript server rendering is still a topic that is challenging to explain to newcomers.

This won't be the last time you choose to learn a framework. If you had asked me I probably would have directed you to React or Svelte, pre 1.0. Svelte is a great choice for people new to JavaScript Frameworks. The important part is to keep reading and keep learning.
