The good news is that LLMs completely breakdown if they are not given well written docs to work off of.

I was trying to look up Fox News articles on the new Superman movie to figure out just why it pisses them off and I find this gem of an article instead 😂 Thank you for saving me from reading more ridiculous fear mongering bullshit, and giving me a good laugh instead! Bravo!

I was working 2 years to put SvelteKit in production to do this talk. It was a hell of a journey. Svelte has given me not only an awesome technical framework, but also so much more with love and support from the community. Don’t think I can ever repay it but damn I will try! Love you guys❤️

Awesome work Matt! I’ve been using unpic for 2 years now and it is amazing! I’m honored I got to contribute the Svelte 5 component for this release!

Bert Bengtson @bertbengtson.bsky.social · 14/01/2025

Love this! fixes all my current problems with actions. Main one being they don’t work with components. No more bind:element onMount action(element) Super excited to see it implemented!

Vitest, testing library, jest-dom. Though I have tried happy-dom a bit. Most of my tests for components are pretty dumb though just checking if it renders with the right accessibility attributes. if the logic gets more intense we split it into a separate file and test that.

Bert Bengtson @bertbengtson.bsky.social · 03/12/2024

My hint for when to use them is if it only happens on client and doesn’t need SSR it is usually best an action. For example I’ll shamelessly plug my phone number formatter I recently wrote. It only needs to format in response to the user typing. So action fits well gist.github.com/bertybot/024...

Bert Bengtson @bertbengtson.bsky.social · 03/12/2024

I’ve recently come to a revelation of how much I have underutilized them. Mostly from migrating to svelte 5. Most of my effect calls were from doing stuff with element that were easily replaced with an action. More efficient and reusable too!
