Rich Harris Teaches ThePrimeagen SvelteKit
Recently, Rich Harris, the creator of Svelte, held a live coding session where he taught ThePrimeagen, a popular coding YouTuber, how to use SvelteKit. SvelteKit is a framework that builds on top of Svelte, providing a streamlined experience for building web applications.
The live coding session was a fantastic opportunity for ThePrimeagen to learn from the creator of Svelte himself. Rich Harris provided insights and tips on how to effectively use SvelteKit to create fast, efficient, and maintainable web applications. ThePrimeagen was able to ask questions, get hands-on experience, and gain a deeper understanding of the framework.
During the session, Rich Harris and ThePrimeagen covered various topics such as routing, server-side rendering, prefetching, and more. They also discussed the philosophy behind SvelteKit and how it differs from other frameworks. The live coding session was not only educational but also enjoyable to watch, as it showcased the expertise and passion of both Rich Harris and ThePrimeagen.
For those who are interested in learning SvelteKit, the live coding session serves as a valuable resource. It provides a real-world example of how to use the framework and offers insights from the creator himself. Additionally, ThePrimeagen has also created a video series based on the live coding session, where he explains the concepts in more detail and demonstrates how to apply them in practice.
Overall, the collaboration between Rich Harris and ThePrimeagen to teach SvelteKit is a great example of the developer community coming together to share knowledge and empower others. It demonstrates the power of live coding sessions and how they can be an effective way to learn new technologies. As SvelteKit continues to gain popularity, the insights and lessons from this session will undoubtedly benefit many developers who are looking to build web applications with Svelte.
Rich Harris is amazing. Insanely smart but more importantly — relatable and humble.
Your colon is on the wrong side, Prime! You'd better see your doctor.
Svelte has Syntax very similar to jinja2
Funny reaction from Prime when Rich says React is a framework
That's nice. ternary operators just upset me
Theo still doesn’t know that Vue has used signals for years and has a very similar pattern with the composition API.
That thing in Rust is also available in C#
7:14 – “did you really just do this to me?” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is a good way to learn Svelte.
No bs, straight to the point.
48:10 it feels like using a function here is sub-optimal, because it's going to re-render the block on every name change, whereas we only need to re-render on validation result change
`$: validated = name == "whatever" // this reacts to the name changes
…
{#if validated} // this reacts to the validation result changes`
The best feature is definitely the {#await} keyword. You can start a call, assign the promise somewhere, and have the UI automatically handle all possible states of the promise in a declarative way.
Should this be called "Rich Harris Teaches ThePrimeagen SvelteKit" or "ThePrimeagen teaches Rich Harris Rust"? :p
If you're new to Svelte and/or coming from React, this video is literally a complete tutorial and also entertaining with actual questions that you might have Wow. You don't need to go anywhere else. I think it was more accurate to rename the title to "Svelte" instead of "SvelteKit" cause it doesn't really teach about SvelteKit or the concept of layouts, routes, and adapters.
I'm glad they did that stream. Rich Harris seems like a cool guy and this video with feedback from ThePrimeagen would help improve Svelte more.
My only question to svelte is – does it have any limitations? Is there anything that we can build with react/angular/vue, that wouldn't be able to build with svelte?
29:35 So it's like extension of some sort(swift have those, for example), but just because it's in rust it's automatically magical?
Reminds SwiftUI very much. I think will definitely try Svelte for front-end part
If you value your life learn svelte
If you want a job…
Just learn svelte, there are jobs for svelte and it also values your life
Well, the part about reactivity with reassignment is better in Angular as it's track objects by default you can have it refresh even if you mutate the same object. Obviously it's more expensive and infact you can disable with OnPush something (I don't remember) but still it's very beginner friendly. And… Unless you do really stupid things you can track A LOT of objects in the same view.
I just fell in love with svelte.
