Nostr Web Client

This is so full of technical references I don't understand. Someone must get it out to the JavaScript developer bubble drama outside Nostr.

Abstractly speaking, in my view, what happened with React, and Vue is repeating again - Once it gets traction, it progressed to a full stack with many functions and abstractions despite getting traction for its simplicity and smallness, and dissatisfied users aspiring "simplicity" aligned with vanilla javascript move to newer framework that promoted "simple", and a generational change occurs again.

I don't know why the history repeats. But I have considered this from the perspective of the innovator's dilemma and the free market around web front-end space.

My feel is that svelte 5 is simpler and less cumbersome than 4.

It's (another) move in one right direction.

When i had some confusion migrating was that the previous way was done poorly (by me) and svelte5 made that work perfectly, basically with no code.

My whole app is using very little svelte code "over the hood". It just magically work. No server side rendering. Static adapter. Way to go.

Also their discord server is very helpful and organised.

i feel like you said "svelte5 is **easier** than 4". And it's still now **simpler** than react, surely.

Either way, that usage seems to be reasonable. Because I think SSR is one of the main reasons causing that "evolution".
