A comment on Svelte 5 Released.

Do they still operate with very little backwards compatibility policy? They killed the sapper project and replaced it with sveltekit. Is sveltekit still alive?

They still support svelte 4 syntax and announced today as well a new migrate CLI to help moving from svelte 4 to svelte 5.

CLI tool: https://github.com/sveltejs/cli

Edit: added the link to the CLI tool

Sapper was a looong time ago in terms of web dev chronology. I even forgot.

Why makes you think SvelteKit could be dead? What a weird a pessimistic phrasing.

It's not a pessimistic statement. I'm just saying they did. There is no guarantee that they will not do the same in the sveltekit project :) I recommend people make smart decisions and use it.

SvelteKit is very alive and is the way svelte apps are made generally, not like next.js which is more optional.
