Hi, I'm Jesse Skinner.
I'm a Freelance Svelte Developer.
I'm based out of Barrie near Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I've been using Svelte in production since 2019, and building web apps that last since 2001.
I love Svelte and SvelteKit, and they're some of my favourite tools in my toolbelt. I turn to Svelte and SvelteKit for:
- building secure admin dashboards
- rendering interactive data visualisations
- statically generating web sites using dynamic data
- fast and lightweight forms that work without JavaScript
Here are a few fun facts about my history with Svelte:
- I've built, deployed and maintained multiple web applications for clients using Svelte and SvelteKit
- I've been through all the migrations, from Sapper to SvelteKit, from Svelte 3 to Svelte 4 to runes. Svelte and SvelteKit just keep getting better!
- In 2018, I watched Rich Harris demo Svelte at JSConf EU in Berlin
- In 2019, my love letter "Svelte is the most beautiful framework I've ever seen" hit the front page of Hacker News.
- In 2020, I developed a video course called The Joy of Svelte.
- In 2021, I spoke at Svelte Fall Summit about "Adding Svelte to your legacy projects".
Here are some of my articles about Svelte:
- Svelte 5 is here!
- How I empower my clients to make changes
- 7 Svelte features that bring me joy
- React Hooks vs. Svelte
- The simplest Svelte component is an empty file
I'm currently available for new projects. I offer fixed quotes with flexible scope and firm deadlines. If you'd like to work together, feel free to contact me below.
