Frontend Development Course: Svelte & TailwindCSS

This summer, I taught a course on Frontend Development using Svelte and TailwindCSS. The course was different from traditional courses—we focused on 3 practical projects instead of long theoretical lessons!

Why Svelte & TailwindCSS?

Why Svelte and not React?

I chose Svelte for several reasons:

1. Easy to Learn - The code is simpler and clearer for beginners
2. Better Performance - Svelte compiles code to plain JavaScript at build time
3. Built-in Reactivity - Reactivity is naturally integrated

Why TailwindCSS?

1. Development Speed - No need to write custom CSS for each element
2. Design Consistency - Ready-made design system
3. Easy Responsive Design - Easily responsive design

Practical Projects

We built 3 progressive projects:

Project 1: Todo List App

A simple task management app. Participants learned Components, State Management, Event Handling, and more.

Project 2: Weather App

Weather app using an external API. Participants learned API Calls, Async/Await, Loading States, and Error Handling.

Project 3: E-commerce Product Page

A complete product page. Participants learned Component Communication, Stores, Transitions & Animations.
