The truth about Svelte

I've been deceiving you all. I had you believe that Svelte was a UI framework — unlike React and Vue etc, because it shifts work out of the client and into the compiler, but a framework nonetheless.

But that's not exactly accurate. In my defense, I didn't realise it myself until very recently. But with Svelte 3 around the corner, it's time to come clean about what Svelte really is.

Svelte is a language.

Specifically, Svelte is an attempt to answer a question that many people have asked, and a few have answered: what would it look like if we had a language for describing reactive user interfaces?

A few projects that have answered this question:

Workbox recipes

Workbox runtime caching recipes

Your Service Worker script will need to import in Workbox and initialize it before calling any of the routes documented in this write-up, similar to the below:

importScripts('workbox-sw.prod.v1.3.0.js');
const workbox = new WorkboxSW();

Setup modern.ie vagrant boxes

Setup modern.ie vagrant boxes

Since modern.ie released vagrant boxes, it' no longer necessary to manually import the ova file to virtualbox, as mentioned here.

However, the guys at modern.ie didn't configured the box to work with WinRM. This how-to addresses that, presenting steps to proper repackage these boxes, adding WinRM support. Additionally configures chocolatey package manager and puppet provisioner.
