Front-end framework? For what!
The problem that a framework is trying to solve is maintainability and scalability.
Just look into any programming framework (i.e. SvelteJS, Laravel, Django, NestJS), what it is trying to introduce is the convention of programming on a certain field ( Front-end or Back-end ).
We can of course program everything from grown-up, but sooner when we scale the project, it will become more and more unmaintable, and harder to pass down the knowledge.
When it comes to front-end, here is a clue on how can you decide whether do you really need a framework for front-end:
- Super small scale project: Just a single web page
- You may use plain HTML & CSS
- Anything else: Framework
Generally, Front-end framework can be categorized into following:
- Client-side rendering
- Server-side rendering
- And of course the brand new hybrid way: Server-generated-client-rendering ( Which is going to be SvelteKit )
What is SvelteJS?
SvelteJS is a client-side rendering framework, you can think of it like your visitor will generate the HTML code on the fly in their machine.
Comparitively, server-side rendering means the HTML code will be generated at the server, and send to your visitor.
You might heard of ReactJS before ( or VueJS ), but there is a significant different between SvelteJS and ReactJS: SvelteJS is a compiler and has no shadow DOM.
What it means is, SvelteJS will compile your code into plain JavaScript, while ReactJS has an "interpreter" that goes through the ReactJS to interprete on the fly ( which resulting to larger bundle size & lower performance )
Let's get dirty (demo)
It's easier to see it in action, let's get started! We will be looking into these modules:
