Rich Harris joins Vercel to work on Svelte full time
I'm tired of having to learn yet another templating language without a very compelling reason.<p>Why do I have to learn, what is essentially, a new programming language for each of these frameworks (Angular, Svelte, Vue, React... Do I really need to learn yet another language construct for stuff like `loops`, `if/else`, event handlers...etc.<p>Why must all of these frameworks re-invent the wheel?<p>At least with React it is most close to the languages we already have learned, JavaScript, and HTML.<p>From what I can tell Svelte looks similar handlebars templating with it's own unique syntax variations... I can't count how many different versions of the same thing I've had to relearn again, and again.
