About

A few years back, my world was deep within the WordPress ecosystem, playing with PHP and creating themes and plugins.

As the industry evolved, I found myself transitioning into frontend and full-stack frameworks like React and Next.js. While these tools offered a lot, they also brought problems:

  • hefty bundles ,

  • excessive JavaScript ,

  • prolonged prototyping phases ,

  • and performance issues .

Then, I stumbled upon Svelte and its meta-framework, SvelteKit. If you'd like to know why Svelte and SvelteKit are formidable alternatives to React, take a moment to read this insightful article Best React Alternatives .
