if @astro isn't your favorite web framework, you're wrong. It's just a joy to work with. Right tool for the right job, of course, but after using Astro I can't imagine using SSG in Nuxt or Sveltekit again.

@jimmythomas if SSG is the goal Astro is a great pick! interesting to hear why you'd pick it over sveltekit tho as that's my fav and i love to learn why im wrong :p

@sarcevic For me, the primary reason is it comes with SSG as the focus. Development is made easier since I don't have to fight with a developer experience made for SSR. It's fast, too. I can use Svelte, React, or any number of other frameworks if I'd like. It's just... pleasant to use.

@jimmythomas fair enough, but I'd say SSG only covers a specific type of web experiences well. SvelteKit to me is pleasant to use for almost any type of web experience 😄

@sarcevic I love SvelteKit as well. For jamstack though, I go with Astro w/Svelte where needed. I'm just happy there are a bunch of great options out there.

@jimmythomas For sure, Astro is awesome! I'd be happy working with both :)
