Don't forget to take the State of JS 2025 survey!

Also, don't forget to write in Syntax under "Resources" if you've been watching / learning from our content this past year.

You've probably heard about the supply chain attack that affected a number of widely-used npm packages today.

tl;dr: Don't panic. Notes:

1. Svelte, SvelteKit and their associated packages are not vulnerable to this attack, as they do not use any of the compromised dependencies in the browser

If you are using AI with svelte and you are not using the svelte MCP you are missing out! 🧡
💪 New features are coming to the Svelte MCP server! You can now directly reference individual parts of the documentation, add the entire documentation to your prompt in one command, or use the "developer" persona for better Svelte 5 support! #svelte

Svelte Inspect Value @ v0.7.0 introduces Inspect.Panel:

- Positionable, resizable Drawer that accepts all the same props as Inspect
- Use the utility function `addToPanel` to set "global" values
- Neat place to put other debug-tools you use (renders children)

I've created a custom labeler so now you can make the svelte feed better!

rccl.ink/labeler

Subscribe to the labeler and if you see some post in the feed that is not about svelte or some post that is about svelte but is not in the feed report it to the labeler and i will manually add/remove it! 🧡

Big thanks to @syntax.fm, @tolin.ski, @w3cj.com and @wesbos.com for the sticker swag. After 15 years as a developer, I finally upgraded my laptop—with stickers. I can confirm it added at least 16GB of RAM.
