> SvelteKit is a Vercel product

While Vercel acqui-hired many developers behind SvelteKit and Nuxt.js, I was under the impression that they weren't interested in running these projects hands-on, or even making them similar to each other. Can anyone correct me here or explain what their long-term game seems to be?

Rich Harris answered this question on Reddit a year ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/sveltejs/comments/19ac6lp/concern_a...

Seems Svelte is still mostly managed as an independent open source project.

I came here exactly for this. Vercel has long since passed the investment threshold where they are driven by building cool things. Now they are surely driven by project managers managing PKIs. I love Svelte and I'm sure Rich Harris has been in meetings where someone said to him "Sure, I know that's important, but this feature I'm talking about will bump my numbers next quarter..." And, that's the slippery slope.
