Reviewer scorecard
“Visual regression testing catches bugs that unit tests miss. The Storybook publishing and review workflow is seamless.”
“The compiler approach produces smaller, faster output. Svelte 5 runes are elegant. SvelteKit is a joy to use.”
“Expensive at scale but visual testing ROI is real. Catching UI regressions before production saves time and trust.”
“Smaller ecosystem than React but the DX is genuinely better. For new projects without React ecosystem needs, it's the best choice.”
“Design review directly on PRs is game-changing. No more 'does this match the design?' back and forth.”
“Svelte proves that a compiler-first approach to UI frameworks is viable. The ideas are influencing React and Vue.”
