Introduction to Svelte Training

Svelte is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces that offers an alternative approach to traditional frameworks like React and Vue. Instead of running in the browser, Svelte operates at build time, directly manipulating the DOM for enhanced performance and efficiency. This Svelte course teaches students how to effectively use templates, blocks, reactivity, components, event handling, and data binding to create dynamic, interactive, and performant Svelte applications.
