Svelte 5 : Bring HTML Support Back to Svelte! PLEASE!

[svelteagen]

Describe the bug

You got rid of body/html tags, javascript functions, and force people to use Svelte's on:click={function} instead of onclick="function()". REVERT THE CHANGE!

I want to use HTML in Svelte, not Svelte in Svelte. This worked until Svelte 5. Pleaseeeeeeee fix it.

Svelte was initially loved for its HTML support something other frameworks didn't have. Now Svelte just sucks.

This is the WORST decision ya'll have EVER made. I HATE IT.

What happened to the flexibility of Svelte with HTML? Svelte is just React now.

If it's not broke, don't fix it. My app worked great until switching to Svelte 5.

I have to rewrite my ENTIRE app because of this. Might as well go back to HTML and forget Svelte.

Who decided this would be a good change?! Like WHAT?! This is WHY I chose Svelte!

We shall rise up and revolt as the Svelte community until the team changes this.

This needs reverted today. Or as soon as possible in an emergency update.

I have no idea what you're referring to with the first two and the last one you got half backwards - we're replacing the non-standard on:click with onclick

I have to rewrite my ENTIRE app because of this.

If you have to rewrite your entire app because you can't use string onclick handlers then your whole app probably needed a rewrite anyway.

I just upgraded my site to Svelte 5 and didn't have to change a line of code. Additionally, we will be offering migration tooling after the final version comes out.

Tbh I don't blame you dude. It's Svelte after all-not HTML, so if you're using it why expect anything else?
But keep doing what you're doing. It's super cool. Love Svelte 5 by the way. Runes are really great!
