Svelte is a relatively new tool for building web applications. Rather than including a runtime library, it compiles to bundled JavaScript that is very small compared to other approaches. Svelte applications launch quickly because there is less to download. Svelte components achieve "reactivity" without using a virtual DOM. State management is greatly simplified. Implementing components requires less code than popular web frameworks. This talk will explain how to get started using Svelte, review the most important features, and walk through an example app.
