+					Svelte is a radical new approach to building user interfaces. Whereas traditional
+					frameworks like React and Vue do the bulk of their work in the <em>browser</em>, Svelte
+					shifts that work into a
+					<em>compile step</em> that happens when you build your app.
+				</p>
+
+				<p>
+					Instead of using techniques like virtual DOM diffing, Svelte writes code that surgically
+					updates the DOM when the state of your app changes.
