Before diving into this book you should have good knowledge of Svelte and REPL. This book helps to fill in knowledge gaps that the docs for those don't really address - while also providing an experienced reference for good code practices. This isn't a book for beginners, but it is a valuable reference tool for those utilizing Svelte.

"SvelteKit Up and Running" offers a solid supplementary resource for those diving into the world of SvelteKit. While I wouldn't consider it a replacement for the official documentation or interactive tutorials, this book does manage to carve a niche for itself as a helpful companion to those resources.The book's strongest suit is its ability to provide a cohesive and structured learning path. It's a great read for those who want to deepen their understanding of SvelteKit beyond the basics. The author's approach to explaining concepts is clear and concise, making it easy to follow along even for newcomers.One aspect worth noting is that "SvelteKit Up and Running" tends to assume a certain level of familiarity with web development and Svelte concepts. As such, I would recommend readers to have a foundational understanding of Svelte before delving into this book.One area where the book truly shines is its practical examples and real-world applications. These scenarios offer readers a chance to see how SvelteKit can be leveraged to solve common web development challenges. Additionally, the inclusion of best practices and coding tips adds significant value, making this book a valuable resource for developers aiming to write efficient and maintainable code.However, it's important to acknowledge that the book might not be the best starting point for complete beginners. For those who are new to Svelte or web development in general, starting with the official documentation and interactive tutorials would be a more recommended approach.In conclusion, "SvelteKit Up and Running" is a commendable addition to the learning toolkit of SvelteKit enthusiasts. While it may not be the first choice for beginners, it serves as a supportive guide for those who have already dipped their toes into the world of Svelte. Its practical examples, coding insights, and well-structured approach make it a valuable resource for developers aiming to level up their SvelteKit skills.

This is an excellent and timely book. I pre-ordered it and got it as soon as it came out, and I'm happy I did. Yes, as others have pointed out, you should start with the official SvelteKit docs and REPL. But in practice, they're not enough. This book fills in a lot of the blanks and brings a lot of valuable tidbits to the table. Even if you've worked through the docs, seeing the same material presented in a different format with a different take on it and different details is phenomenally useful. Well done Dylan!

The book is excellent for beginners as it goes through the fundamentals of setting up a web app. It goes over concepts such as webhooks and SEO which are great for first-time developers. With this in mind, I would have loved to see some code-along projects and more detailed explanations of how to build endpoints, how they work, and best practices.
