Hey, I was doing research for my article on static sites and Sapper looked so interesting I actually ended up building something similar. I could take this.

Well it seems that @Alameen688 reacted with the Rocket emoji which means that maybe he's working on it. I'll ask him right now but if he doesn't, it's yours :)

[malgamves]

Sure, let me know what they say

Just posting this here for reference:

Thank you @jarmitage, I really appreciate!

I landed on this Starter yesterday and started a conversation with Heithem. As the starter is not totally complete like the other ones (Gatsby, Next.js etc..) I'm therefore planning to finish it with him and making it an official starter in the Strapi organization.

What's awesome here is that @malgamves also built one using Sapper which means 2 starters are coming soon ;)

Hey @Mcastres, @jarmitage jarmitage.
Seen the work of heithemmouni: looks great ☆
Just a question:
what do you think of the choice of Apollo and GraphQL?
What about Sapper and groq?

[malgamves]

Hey, I'm done with writing this!

This is the project repo

I'll be sharing the blog post soon

We took a different approach where we downloaded all content from Strapi on build-time: https://koj.co/en-ch/blog/creating-a-sapper-blog-using-strapi/.

This is really cool @AnandChowdhary you should add this to our showcase

Is your whole site powered by Strapi or just your blog?

Thanks for the tip! I've added it here: #216

Is your whole site powered by Strapi or just your blog?

All our "content" pages are powered by Strapi, such as our blog (https://koj.co/en-ch/blog/), careers (https://koj.co/en-ch/careers/), and support (https://koj.co/en-ch/support/) sections. The "app" parts are written in Svelte.

That's pretty sweet! Thanks for that 🎊

https://svelte-ecommerce.netlify.app/ is a Svelte e-commerce app with a Strapi backend, the tut and code to it is the 2nd project in this course https://www.udemy.com/course/svelte-tutorial-and-projects-course/ that I like quite a bit.

Got the course some time ago and by chance I found out just now that the e-commerce app is built on a Strapi backend and quite thoroughly explained. Can only recommend it. 👍
