spending more time on 🟦☁️ these days. will probably check in here from time to time but only out of some combo of obligation/addiction/muscle memory it's nicer over there. it's not as mastodony as mastodon and it isn't run by an anticharismatic manchild. you should come
not only do we have a brand new CLI but this is the first blog post we've published featuring multiple Bens (@BenjaminMcCann and @bmdavis419) — truly a week of milestones
Introducing the new Svelte CLI! svelte.dev/blog/sv-the-svelt… We’re now offering the ability to setup CSS, formatting, linting, testing, DB querying, auth, i18n, and more. Just run `npx sv create` and follow the prompts.

you're also a complete dumbass but we knew that already
It's an astonishing feat of mathematics to raise taxes on 95% of Americans all in the name of cutting taxes on average.

if you vote for the party that wants to put more families through this hell, you and i are not friends. you disgust me. you should feel the deepest, most searing shame rollingstone.com/politics/po… (pre-emptively muted because the worst people in the world are going to flock here)

just saw tsh.io/state-of-frontend/ three guesses which "attractively thin, graceful and stylish" framework has the highest liked : disliked ratio
will cool it with the launch week self-promo soon, but: it's so gratifying to see feedback like this (from my @viteconf talk, up today piped.video/watch?v=KC6IolBu…, and from /r/sveltejs) we took risks! but we only could because you were prepared to take them with us. thank you 🧡

Gave a talk last week about Tintin and hacking Wordpress and (of course) fonts Really great audience that asked super incisive questions, many from @PaceUniversity — made me feel optimistic about our industry And I finally got to meet @mhevery! piped.video/watch?v=aFFYETUd…
Our talks about Qwik, Svelte and Valibot are now available on YouTube! Thank you @mhevery, @Rich_Harris, @pace_seidenberg, @PaceUniversity and all participants for a great evening! piped.video/playlist?list=PL…

just so you know, everything is ready to launch but we're debugging some insane safari bugs which happens every time i try and build something just an unforgivably awful piece of software. i hate it so much.
i know i said monday i meant tuesday 😬
PR already open. 0 svelte check issues, all tests passing. This was the smoothest migration of all time.
Shout out to the @sveltejs team for their great migration assistant. I updated 96 components and the site loaded first try. I'm sure there are a few tasks, but the fact that it even loaded and seems to work is super impressive.
