sveltestrap VS svelte-kit-koa-boilerplate

I'd suggest: SvelteKit, Typescript, Bootstrap, axios, and yarn. This is a relatively easy combination to learn, and quite fast to develop with. Bootstrap is getting long in the tooth, but it has a vast ecosystem and takes care of a lot of details for you. Alternative frameworks: Nuxt, SolidJS, SolidStart, Astro. Alternative components: Flowbite, Svelma, Smelte.

sveltestrap - Bootstrap 4 & 5 components for Svelte

That's one of the issues with Svelte. It's a newcomer so the ecosystem is minuscule.

Personally I'm happy using Bulma with Svelte. I find most UI libraries tend to add too much bloat so I'd rather have something that only adds configurable CSS and just add as much JS as I need/want.

I used Vue+Vuetify some years ago. I wasn't very happy with it, but I agree Svelte needs something similar.

There are a couple of projects out there that add Svelte components for Bootstrap, Material, or IBM Carbon you could check.

There are also a couple of projects about headless (no CSS) components for Svelte although I only seem to be able to find this one (not public yet)

Sveltestrap

Within a few minutes, I located the sveltestrap dependency, then added it to my project using the following command:

I am using sveltestrap in my project. Link:https://github.com/bestguy/sveltestrap | I want to know how can I use the default utilities classes that are provided by the Bootstrap 5?

- 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.
