r311 vs Svelte
A side-by-side editorial comparison of r311 and Svelte — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
r311 vs Svelte: at a glance
What is r311?
r311 curates a catalogue of Open311 endpoints and now marks the dead ones explicitly.
r311 wraps Open311 civic-issue APIs behind one R interface, with a bundled list of municipal endpoints. Recent releases are dominated by keeping that list current — Helsinki added in 0.4.4, Espoo and Oulu in 0.4.3, with Ottawa, Siegburg, Northfield and Annaberg-Buchholz deprecated. Version 0.4.3 added the machinery to record that decay: questioned and deprecated keys that make o311_api() warn or abort.
What is Svelte?
SvelteKit 3 reaches release candidate: breaking changes are frozen and the migration path is open
SvelteKit 3 has moved from preview to release candidate, with the team signalling no further breaking changes before stable. Configuration now lives in vite.config.ts instead of svelte.config.js, and an `sv@next migrate sveltekit-3` codemod handles most of the upgrade automatically while flagging the rest as a TODO list. The 2.x line kept shipping through the same period - remote form `submitted`, a relocated `defineEnvVars`, and zero-config error page props.

r311 curates a catalogue of Open311 endpoints and now marks the dead ones explicitly.
◆ Current state
r311 wraps Open311 civic-issue APIs behind one R interface, with a bundled list of municipal endpoints. Recent releases are dominated by keeping that list current — Helsinki added in 0.4.4, Espoo and Oulu in 0.4.3, with Ottawa, Siegburg, Northfield and Annaberg-Buchholz deprecated. Version 0.4.3 added the machinery to record that decay: questioned and deprecated keys that make o311_api() warn or abort.
◆ Where it's heading
The package's real work is curation, and it has started treating endpoint rot as a first-class state rather than letting requests fail silently. Error handling and condition objects were hardened in the same release, which fits a client whose dominant failure mode is a city's server going away. Releases are small and roughly annual.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next release to be another catalogue pass — a city or two added, more moved to questioned or deprecated — rather than new API surface.

SvelteKit 3 reaches release candidate: breaking changes are frozen and the migration path is open
◆ Current state
SvelteKit 3 has moved from preview to release candidate, with the team signalling no further breaking changes before stable. Configuration now lives in vite.config.ts instead of svelte.config.js, and an `sv@next migrate sveltekit-3` codemod handles most of the upgrade automatically while flagging the rest as a TODO list. The 2.x line kept shipping through the same period - remote form `submitted`, a relocated `defineEnvVars`, and zero-config error page props.
◆ Where it's heading
The major is arriving as a consolidation rather than a rewrite: most of what lands in 3.0 was previewed in the 2.x line first, so the upgrade cost stays low by design. The centre of gravity has been remote functions and forms for six straight months, and Kit 3 mostly finalises that surface while pruning the configuration story. With breaking changes now frozen, the work shifts from designing the major to getting the ecosystem - adapters, language tools, community plugins - onto it.
◆ Prediction
The stable SvelteKit 3 release is the next milestone, and the team has tied it to RC feedback rather than a date. Expect the monthly digests to fill with adapter and tooling updates catching up to the vite.config.ts requirement before that lands.
