What Is Svelte and Why It Compiles
Understand Svelte's compiler-first approach and how it differs from React and Vue.
Welcome to Svelte
Svelte is a compiler-first UI framework. Unlike React or Vue, Svelte does most of its work at build time, not at runtime.
No Virtual DOM
React diffs a virtual DOM at runtime. Svelte instead compiles your components into highly optimized vanilla JavaScript that updates the DOM directly.
