Snowpack is unmaintained - would SvelteKit be a good fit?

[danbri]

https://www.snowpack.dev/ says

Update (April 20, 2022): Snowpack is no longer actively maintained and is not recommended for new projects.

.. and points at Vite, https://vitejs.dev/

Meanwhile there is also SvelteKit, https://kit.svelte.dev/ which apparently is moving to Vite.

Nearby:

• https://svelte.dev/blog/whats-the-deal-with-sveltekit (nov 2020, when 'powered by snowpack)

None of these are technologies that I'm familiar with, but wondering if SvelteKit would be a good fit here since Svelte is already in use...

I had a look at reshaping the repo to use SvelteKit. I did it for now as a fork, but the files are pretty reorganized to match the new tooling's default expectations. It might have been better to call it liquidfun-play-3 or something.

https://github.com/danbri/liquidfun-play-2

Please excuse the hacks (e.g. I just committed the two .wasm files as snapshots for now). The main demo is basically your gravity example hacked a bit, aim being to see if liquidfun in wasm would be a good basis for this kind of stuff: https://github.com/stevebattle/liquid (and in general to try to bring liquidfun to attention of ML/AI and Alife folks).

Right now it kinda sorta works if you

npm i npm run dev

...except there's something busted causing it to crash if the page is reloaded. Like I say, I am new to all these tools!
