Experimenting with Svelte 5's New Runes API
tl;dr: Hey all, I decided to give Svelte 5's new Runes API a try and build a simple todo app to see how it works. Here's a quick overview of the new API and my thoughts on it.
You can check out the app here → todo.sanju.sh

So, what’s the big deal about the new Runes API? In a nutshell, it’s designed to make it easier to create and manage states. I was a bit skeptical at first, but after using it, I’m impressed! It’s more intuitive and makes it easier to write clean and maintainable code.
I’m looking forward to using the new API in products like SticAi and Uiino to improve the performance and maintainability of the codebase.
Here’s link to the tweet I shared about the app:
