K - consistency. Good job, Vue, on making me feel miserably dumb for an hour.

Yeah. The core can grow a bit more, but soon it will reach its ceiling. And reaching even 0.5MB of the bundle requires a good amount of code (or libs).

8 components is still a small app. svelte/src/internal/client contains the core and currently is ~400KB (including typings and dev-only code). It is well tree-shaked to 55KB.

But, yeah, 1KB app is impossible in Svelte 5.

Hi, looks like a bug since 5.38.3. Please open an issue.

In-template variable definition · vuejs rfcs · Discussion #505 Sometimes you will encounter such a situation: <template> <div class="container"> <p class="row">{{item && item.a && item.a.b && item.a.b.hello}}</p> <p class="row">{{item && item.a && item.a.b && ...

Lol, Vue exists for over 10 years and still doesn't allow defining variables in the template. What a PITA.

Are they interchangeable? Here, in Svelte, is an issue that you cannot mount a snippet and @render a component, which often introduces extra friction. I personally think we should make them interchangeable, but it is a breaking change.
