BLURB SUMMARIZING WHAT'S NEW...

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.


**What's going on in Sapper?**
Any updates here?

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 :)



## Impactful bug fixes
-


## 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.

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?

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.


For all the features and bugfixes see the CHANGELOG for [Svelte](https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) and [Sapper](https://github.com/sveltejs/sapper/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md).
