New blog post!

new features & impactful bug fixes
Svelte Summit Summary
showcase

Feel free to comment with any feedback! Also, if folks have an opinion on how we should email this post, I'm happy to deprecate svelte.substack.com in favor of a more official mailing list (I can import my 200 or so subscribers 😄 ). See: #5578

+Any updates here?


0.28.10 was released: https://github.com/sveltejs/sapper/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#02810

Awesome! I'll read through and pull out some highlights! If you have any suggestions / high level summary, I'd be happy to include any blurb you'd like :)

+## Coming up
+- Rich Harris demoed the possible future of local Svelte development in a talk titled "Futuristic Web Development" at last month's [Svelte Summit](https://sveltesummit.com/). If you're interested in built-in Server-Side Rendering, modern Hot Module Reloading, or how slots make consistent styling easy across pages, [check out the video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSfdtmcZ4d0).


I think this deserves a little more text. I'm not sure though how to do it without turning it into a whole blog post in itself. Thoughts?

I think it definitely does deserve more too. I've written an article about this, I could help sum up and reiterate the important parts or perhaps create another post for this.

"Serverless First Framework"

Maybe we keep this brief here, we don't want to go into too many details and we want to be very careful about what we put out as officials comms. A dedicated article by those involved with the project makes the most sense.

Is my suggested change below already too much or is it okay in your opinion?

+"What's new in Svelte" series! We'll try to make this a monthly blog post in which you'll find out about new features, bug fixes, and a showcase of Svelte projects from around the community.
+
+## New features
+1. 


Slot forwarding might be a notable new feature, but it seems broken for some cases, we might need to see if #5536 lands before november.

Here's my suggested change:

Suggested change

- Rich Harris demoed the possible future of local Svelte development in a talk titled "Futuristic Web Development" at last month's [Svelte Summit](https://sveltesummit.com/). If you're interested in built-in Server-Side Rendering, modern Hot Module Reloading, or how slots make consistent styling easy across pages, [check out the video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSfdtmcZ4d0).

- Rich Harris demoed the possible future of Svelte development in a talk titled "Futuristic Web Development" at last month's [Svelte Summit](https://sveltesummit.com/). The not-yet-public project is called SvelteKit (name may change) and will bring a first-class developer experience and more flexibility for build outputs. It will also solve the "Svelte or Sapper?"-question: Sapper will be deprecated and integrated into this project. The transition will be made as smooth as possible - many of Svelte's core team members have large Sapper apps in production, too. If you want to get the full sneak-peek, [check out the video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSfdtmcZ4d0).

I'm not sure I'd put "better SSR" here.

I think something like:

"... and will bring a first-class developer experience and more flexibility for build outputs."

The rest looks fine to me.

pngwn · 2020-10-24T13:25:40Z

From a community POV, Svelte Summit should probably be mentioned, the YouTube channel has most of the recordings uploaded as standalone videos now (there is a playlist here ). It is definitely the most significant event in that regard.

@kevmodrome I find some of the videos are private would be great to have a dedicated playlist with only individual videos.

Preview

pngwn · 2020-10-24T15:29:09Z

They are being released slowly, as far as I'm aware. I think that is why some are marked as private.

kevmodrome · 2020-10-24T19:52:57Z

Yes! As pngwn said, the last few ones are being released tomorrow 👍

DreaminDani · 2020-10-25T21:04:22Z

Hey y'all! I think this post is ready to go. Feel free to leave any feedback before the end of the month :D

Thanks to everyone who reviewed

dummdidumm

Looks good to me! I added one suggestion to link to the Sapper docs for the new preload typings, that's all

+## [Svelte Summit](https://sveltesummit.com/) was Svelte-tacular!
+- Rich Harris demoed the possible future of Svelte development in a talk titled "Futuristic Web Development". The not-yet-public project is called SvelteKit (name may change) and will bring a first-class developer experience and more flexibility for build outputs. If you want to get the full sneak-peek, [check out the video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSfdtmcZ4d0).
+- 18 speakers made the best of the conference's virtual format... From floating heads to seamless demos, Svelte developers from every skill level will find something of interest in this year's [YouTube playlist](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8bMgX1kyZThM1sbYCoWdTcpiYysJsSeu)


17 talks not 18

Wolfr · 2020-10-27T23:31:20Z

It's so cool that you're doing this again for november 👍

DreaminDani · 2020-10-31T15:24:14Z

@dummdidumm or someone with merge access. Would you be able to merge this today or early tomorrow?

Thanks y'all!
