mikado VS Svelte

Yet another JS framework. How fast is it really? The learning curve may not be worth it if it's slower than https://www.solidjs.com/ and according to https://krausest.github.io/js-framework-benchmark/current.ht... few things are faster than a very little-known framework called Mikado (https://github.com/nextapps-de/mikado). That being said, I would never sacrifice performance of my software for how trendy or popular something is, e.g. React is #1 in popularity yet it's overcomplicated, massive, slow as hell.

If I do need client-side data-binding, then I'll probably just go for something like https://github.com/nextapps-de/mikado instead, which is the best-performing option on the benchmarks as I remember.

Now, it’s worth noting that aside from Solid, there are 2 faster “UI frameworks” included in the benchmark but not on the table above. These are Mikado (actually a template engine) and doohtml (marked with a note about using manual DOM manipulation), so the point still stands - Solid is the fastest JS UI library!

Svelte

React has introduced measures like batching state updates, background concurrent rendering and memoization to tackle this. My opinion is that the best way to solve the problem is by improving their reactivity model. The app needs to be able to track the code that should be re-run on updating a given state variable and specifically update the UI corresponding to this update. Tools like solid.js and svelte work in this manner. It also eliminates the need for a virtual DOM and diffing.

Similarly to Promises/A+, this effort focuses on aligning the JavaScript ecosystem. If this alignment is successful, then a standard could emerge, based on that experience. Several framework authors are collaborating here on a common model which could back their reactivity core. The current draft is based on design input from the authors/maintainers of Angular, Bubble, Ember, FAST, MobX, Preact, Qwik, RxJS, Solid, Starbeam, Svelte, Vue, Wiz, and more…

Svelte is a powerful web framework that offers a fresh approach to building web applications. Its simplicity, reactivity model, and built-in features make it an excellent choice for developers looking to create efficient and maintainable applications. By following this guide, you should now have a good understanding of how to get started with Svelte and build your first components, routes, and transitions. You can read more about svelte on the official Svelte website.

Use .NET features (especially dotnet watch) as a setup for a client-side Svelte application, starting from a simple C# console app.

Volar originally was Vue3's language support tool for VScode (I don't know about other editors). By today, volar has become a language indipendent framework to create language tools. It might still be a bit early for the dev with skill issues like me to use it and build some tools, but astro and svelte already use Volar to create their language tools.
