I love love love Svelte/Sveltekit. I am an experienced backend engineer and this is the first time I have worked in a FE framework that just clicked.

What I like:

- Not a whole lot of magic syntax.

- The structure of files feels like I am building a backend app, its quite logical and easy to parse through.

- Easy to get up and running, I am sure the decisions exist but I struggle historically with all the sidecar products that can be added into the frontend framework.

- It combines the beauty of native JS/TS with svelte. I can hydrate a store with my own hand rolled api calls.

- There is not a whole lot going on from a API/user perspective. I have stores and routes which are built into the folder structure. I am sure there is more but that gets me to a useful MVP.
