Ember Octane vs Svelte 4
Ember Octane and Svelte 4 side by side: the same components written in both frameworks, from reactivity and templating to lifecycle, composition and forms.
Reactivity
Declare state
Update state
Templating
Styling
Loop
Event click
Dom ref
Conditional
Ember Octane
<button {{on "click" this.nextLight}}>Next light</button>

{{#if (eq this.light "red")}}
STOP
{{else if (eq this.light "orange")}}
SLOW DOWN
{{else if (eq this.light "green")}}
GO
{{/if}}
</p><script>
const TRAFFIC_LIGHTS = ["red", "orange", "green"];
let lightIndex = 0;
$: light = TRAFFIC_LIGHTS[lightIndex];
function nextLight() {
lightIndex = (lightIndex + 1) % TRAFFIC_LIGHTS.length;
}
</script>
<button on:click={nextLight}>Next light</button>
<p>Light is: {light}</p>
<p>
You must
{#if light === "red"}
<span>STOP</span>
{:else if light === "orange"}
<span>SLOW DOWN</span>
{:else if light === "green"}
<span>GO</span>
{/if}
</p>

let isHappy = true;
function onAnswerNo() {
isHappy = false;
}
function onAnswerYes() {
isHappy = true;
}
</script>
