It's just "JavaScript" in that it needs a translation layer and has a bunch of special syntax/semantics around reactive variables. Lol.

I don't understand the cult following around Svelte. There's a lot of magic and complexity hiding in there.

At the end of the day state management is not trivial and something has to handle it. React doesn't impose a specific state solution which is what I like about it. But while React isn't perfect, Svelte is not the next step imho.
