This reminds me of the recent SvelteKit Remote Functions GH discussion: > Even in systems that prevent server functions from being declared in client code (such as "use server" in React Server Components), experienced developers can be caught out. We prefer a design that emphasises the public nature of remote functions rather than the fact that they run on the server, and avoids any confusion around lexical scope.

In RCE Vulnerability in React and Next.js
The number 3, 4, and 5 contributors to SvelteKit in the past year work at Vercel: https://github.com/sveltejs/kit/graphs/contributors?from=8%2... Rich and Simon are incredibly important, but they're in it for Svelte and the community more so than a paycheck from Vercel. Tee has been doing most of the maintenance on SvelteKit currently funded by community donations. And this isn't counting other infrastructure like vite-plugin-svelte or the Svelte CLI which are entirely maintained by volunteers. I don't think Vercel funds a majority of the work on Svelte even if it might be close to it.
In Next.js is infuriating
This is great! Locality of Behaviour is of special interest to me. How is your experience with currentScript.parentElement? Last month I did a quick research and my impression is that it wasn't reliable in some probably niche case but I can't remember when. But I didn't investigate much and I'm glad you made it work! If I load 3 consecutive scripts currentScript.parentElement should still work in all browsers right? As long as it is not async or module, which is fine with me. SvelteKit had this conversation and they ended up implementing random ids for elements to set their targets: https://github.com/sveltejs/kit/issues/2221

ttest All deployed on a VM at Scaleway (https://www.scaleway.com/en/) with Bash script (https://github.com/stephane-klein/sveltekit-tendaro-webshell...) After 3 months of development on this stack, I'm very satisfied. My application is fast, light and requires very little code.
