Caption notes
Starting with spreadsheet dependencies, Rich Harris presents the design being developed around the release of Svelte 3: a compiler turns declarative components into page-update code and orders calculations for derived values. He shifts the question from comparing interfaces faster to identifying work that can be determined ahead of time or omitted, then discusses accessibility warnings, component styles, transitions and approachable tools. This guide preserves his design argument. It does not independently validate the live benchmarks, device anecdotes or server-cost claims, or rank present-day frameworks.
