Top Svelte Projects

Storybook is an open-source tool for building UI components and pages in isolation, making it easier to develop, test, and document React, Vue, Angular, and other web components.

Code Example

import { Button } from './Button';

export default {
  component: Button,
  title: 'Components/Button',
};

export const Primary = () => <Button primary>Click me</Button>;

Pros

• Provides a comprehensive development environment for UI components, unlike more focused libraries like TanStack/query or tsparticles.
• Supports multiple frontend frameworks, making it more versatile than framework-specific tools like sveltejs/svelte or NativeScript/NativeScript.
• Offers extensive documentation and addon ecosystem, surpassing many other projects in terms of community support and extensibility.

Cons

• Has a steeper learning curve compared to simpler UI libraries like daisyui or tabler-icons.
• Can add complexity to projects, especially for smaller applications where tools like sveltejs/kit might be more appropriate.
• Requires additional setup and configuration, which may be unnecessary for projects that don't need isolated component development.

Svelte is a modern JavaScript framework for building user interfaces with a focus on simplicity and performance.

Code Example

<script>
  let count = 0;
</script>

<button on:click={() => count++}>Clicks: {count}</button>

Pros

• Svelte offers a simpler and more intuitive syntax compared to many other frameworks like React or Vue.
• It compiles to vanilla JavaScript, resulting in smaller bundle sizes and better runtime performance than most alternatives.
• Svelte has a gentler learning curve, making it accessible to developers of various skill levels.

Cons

• Svelte has a smaller ecosystem and community compared to more established frameworks like React or Vue.
• It lacks some advanced features and tooling that are available in more mature frameworks.
• Svelte's compile-time approach can make it more challenging to integrate with certain third-party libraries.

Immich is a self-hosted photo and video backup solution with a mobile app and web interface.

Pros

• Offers a complete, self-hosted solution for photo and video management, unlike many other projects focused on specific UI components or development tools.
• Provides both mobile and web interfaces, making it more versatile than single-platform projects.
• Emphasizes privacy and data ownership, which is not a primary focus for many of the other listed projects.

Cons

• Has a narrower scope compared to more general-purpose development frameworks like Svelte or NativeScript.
• May require more setup and maintenance effort than cloud-based alternatives or simpler UI libraries.
• Lacks the extensive ecosystem and community support of larger projects like Storybook or TanStack Query.

unionlabs/union is an open-source project management tool designed for software development teams.

Pros

• Offers a comprehensive suite of project management features tailored specifically for software development workflows.
• Integrates seamlessly with popular version control systems and development tools.
• Provides a user-friendly interface that balances simplicity with powerful functionality.

Cons

• As a newer project, it may have a smaller community and fewer resources compared to more established alternatives like Jira or Trello.
• May lack some advanced features found in enterprise-level project management solutions.
• Could have a steeper learning curve for teams transitioning from simpler task management tools.

TanStack Query is a powerful data-fetching and state management library for web applications.

Code Example

import { useQuery } from '@tanstack/react-query'

const { data, isLoading } = useQuery('todos', fetchTodos)

Pros

• Provides a robust caching system, reducing unnecessary network requests
• Offers seamless integration with React, Vue, and Svelte frameworks
• Simplifies complex data fetching scenarios with built-in pagination and infinite scrolling support

Cons

• Has a steeper learning curve compared to simpler state management solutions
• May be overkill for small projects with minimal data fetching requirements
• Requires additional setup and configuration compared to native fetch or axios
