for devs familiar with astro and svelte. when do you use one over the other? current mental framing has been to use astro whenever i create docs or simple static sites, but sveltekit for most everything else wondering if there's a better right tool, right job consideration here

That's generally my mental model too. Astro is great when SEO is a concern, so blogs, docs, marketing sites, etc. Then I use SPAs for apps where that's not an issue. Personally couldn't get into combining the two much. It's cool that Astro allows you to use Svelte or any other component library into the stack, but kinda unnecessary as you just end up writing a bunch of code in the client anyway.

It’s best for small one off interactive bits. For example I used it for the dark mode toggle when my personal site was in astro. Agreed that it doesn’t make a ton of sense for more complicated apps
