What Hacker News says?

  1. Svelte can be used with renderless components. https://imfeld.dev/writing/svelte_domless_components Svelte can also draw on a canvas. There is Threlte: https://threlte.xyz/ As for performance within Svelte, I don't think it needs something like Jotai as much as React does to prevent unnecessary re-rendering.

  3. I wrote some about my experiences using Leaflet with Svelte: https://imfeld.dev/writing/leaflet_with_svelte I found you have to do some extra work to keep track of things to convert from declarative style to Leaflet’s imperative style, but overall I actually had a pretty good experience with it. Feel free to ping me on Twitter (same username) if you have any questions.
