## Why Svelte v2 / Sapper ?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There is [no upgrade path from Svelte v2 to v3](https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte/issues/2462). Doing so would require manually migrating every component over. And in the end, it would probably not change the UX (user experience) of Pinafore – only the DX (developer experience).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Similarly, [Sapper would need to be migrated to SvelteKit](https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/migrating). Since Pinafore generates static files, there is probably not much benefit in moving from Sapper to SvelteKit.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For this reason, Pinafore has been stuck on Svelte v2 and Sapper for a long time. Migrating it is not something I've considered. The [v2 Svelte docs](https://v2.svelte.dev/) are still online, and share many similarities with Svelte v3.
