React's Strengths React has been around for a while unlike Svelte which is relatively new. This results in: A significantly larger ecosystem when working with libraries than Svelte. Finding libraries to achieve specific functionalities in Svelte can be challenging. React is highly sought after in frontend development roles. Svelte's Strengths Svelte is much easier and fun to use than React which means that You can get from an idea to a working prototype faster in Svelte than in React (This makes it useful for backend developers) Working with the DOM is easier in Svelte thanks to element bindings unlike in React with the cumbersome useRef hook Svelte is much faster since it has a compiler. In conclusion, While React is a staple in the industry, I find Svelte's simplicity and speed to be a refreshing and efficient development experience. What are your thoughts on React and Svelte?⭐
