I've used Svelte on two reasonably hefty personal project sites[1][2] and was pleasantly surprised by how easy they were to build and (now) maintain. The one issue I had with Svelte was Sapper - I didn't get on with it (it wasn't a good fit for either of my projects). SvelteKit was released in beta a couple of days ago - I've no idea how much that changes things. I'm hoping I don't have to relearn a whole bunch of stuff to use the new shiny.

What was your issue with Sapper? I found it to work great for me, and always interested in others' use cases.

I plan on migrating to SvelteKit once it's stable, and may start migrating some of my smaller sites over in the meantime.

Also, no need to warn about poetry- more people should write from their heart IMO.
