Serving static files with Node.JS
Express.js, with its long-lived version 4 is famous for its somewhat low performance. Other projects like fastify or polka have benchmarks outperforming Express.js. I don’t know why Express is slower, maybe because of regex processing of routes? If you’re using parametric routes like /users/:userid/entity and have no regexp routes, then replacing Express.js with fastify or polka will add a performance boost to your app. They are not direct replacements, but you can convert code if you really need that boost. In the article below benchmarks shows huge improvement, but in reality, your code will be a limiting factor to your app performance, and you are unlikely notice any improvement.

My Evaluation of SvelteKit for Full-Stack Web App Development
- once released and popular, they cease getting frequent updates
Now, yes this is a generalization. It doesn't apply to all of their packages, and not at the same point in time. But there is a pattern there. Some quick diving into the author's Github account, and their more popular repos shows the pattern. It's also clear that this was a choice made by a Svelte contributor to use their own package for "official" support in Svelte Kit.
When it comes to polka itself, I just don't get why a maturing framework like Svelte would choose something whose only real advantage lies in micro-benchmarking porn [1]. Speculation aside, I'm surprised the Svelte team didn't look at that choice through a lens of higher scrutiny. Koa would have been an infinitely better choice in my personal opinion, and there are several community-driven setups [2][3] for it.

Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform
I've played around with several platforms in the last year or so. I've landed on the following setup that works very well for me and ticks all your boxes:
A SvelteKit[0] app hosted on Cloudflare pages. The repo is hosted on GitHub and hooked up to the Cloudflare Pages app [1]. On PRs, I get preview environments. On merge, the changes get deployed to my "production" website. I write blog posts and other content in markdown, which is then processed by mdsvex[2] with very minimal setup.
Mostly, my requirements were more focused around getting the actual framework, hosting, etc. out of my way so that I could focus on writing. Gatsby and Next.js were too configuration heavy and turned me off once I scratched beyond the surface.

CryptoFlow: Building a secure and scalable system with Axum and SvelteKit - Part 5
From part 0 to part 4, we built out CryptoFlow's backend service. Though we can quickly use Postman, VS Code's ThunderClient or automated tests to see the endpoints working easily, this isn't all we want. We want to actively interact with the backend service via some intuitive user interface. Also, a layman wouldn't be able to "consume" the service we've built in the last parts. This article introduces building out the user interface of the system. We will be using SvelteKit, a framework that streamlines web development, and TailwindCSS, the utility-first CSS framework. Let's dig in!
