SvelteKit is a framework for building modern, high-performance, browser-based applications. It was developed by the team behind the popular Svelte framework and is powered by Svelte. Unlike other JavaScript frameworks, it doesn't use a virtual DOM or deliver a bloated and slow application.

In this SvelteKit video, I demonstrate security concerns with using +layout.servers to protect routes and handle authentication within your SvelteKit application.
