A weekly Svelte update from February 2024 covering changelog highlights, community showcase featuring Paraglide JS for internationalization, and discussions about Svelte 5 progress.
Changelog and Q&A with Rich Harris. The episode covers various updates and improvements in Svelte, including support for TypeScript type assertions, fixes for scoping classes, optimizations in the compiler, and enhancements in SSR (Server-Side Rendering) and CSS pruning.

If you are building a Single-Page App (SPA), you will likely need a router for your app. With the lack of an official router for Svelte 3, there's quite a few options, so which one should you pick?
In this talk, we'll look at the two different kinds of routers (based on the History API or based on the page's hash), how they differ, and when you should pick which. We'll also go through a demo of implementing routing for a Svelte 3 SPA using svelte-spa-router.
