Intro
This month, we saw lots of contributions to SvelteKit and its docs. The language tools also got some new features alongside some hydration bug fixes in Svelte core. Let's jump into the updates...
## New in SvelteKit
- `svelte.config.js` config files can now be loaded in ESM format (`.js` instead of `.cjs` - either can be used). It is recommended to use the `.js` format going forward.
