Editorial take
Why it stands out
Svelte 5 migration is not a find-replace—schedule a spike before committing roadmaps.

Tool profile
Full stack framework for Svelte with routing, rendering, and server logic for modern web apps.
Interactive apps where small JS payload matters
Full-stack framework for Svelte apps: filesystem routing, server endpoints, adapters for many hosts, and small client bundles thanks to compile-time work.
SvelteKit is MIT-licensed. No framework fee—hosting follows adapter choice (serverless, edge, static). Svelte 5 runes changed authoring—budget learning time on upgrades.
Excellent when bundle size and simplicity beat massive client runtime overhead.
