Possibly, but Tailwind makes things so much faster for me. React has "better" developer tools. Perhaps I'm less proficient in Svelte, Rollup is still cryptic to me, and I haven't taken the time to use Vite/Kit yet.

Oh I think the other thing was Svelte doesn't work as well with Typescript (or I couldn't figure out how to make it work as well). I wouldn't get type hints in situations where I would with React.

Perhaps I just didn't take the time to get things set up properly. If you can link a Svelte project that uses Tailwind and Typescript I'd love to give it a clone and see if things work better.

Regarding productivity, I don't think I'm "less" productive in Svelte, especially for smaller apps. I think I've been really conditioned by React and have an easier time splitting out components and making things more modular, which makes a big difference with larger apps.
