Svelteâs ecosystem is huge because itâs trivial to adapt vanilla JavaScript things. (Itâs about to become even easier when Svelte 5 drops this April!) In React, everything has to be wrapped or rewritten in terms of React providers and hooks â itâs practically a different programming language.

Ugh, I don't wanna be the guy that is just constantly defending React (it's not that great, tbh), but _everything_? I'm using vanilla viem in a React project. Plus all the other go-to libs like lodash, zod, etc. > itâs practically a different programming language React has a learning curve, but it's really just JS.

I might want to try some experiments that use the canvas as I always have to manipulate that within a use effect in react

Any chance the reasons svelte crew loves svelte so much is because theyâre adopting it after learning lots and lots of stuff they maybe take for granted (ie gained experience) while working in other ecosystems, and are just better, more well-rounded engineers today compared to when they started writing react?

I remember once upon a time seeing posts from former Angular devs excitedly explaining that they didn't need React-specific libraries for everything because React worked great with vanilla JavaScript libraries!
