Svelte component libraries must recompile on every build (no pre-built distribution)

6/10 Medium

Svelte doesn't support publishing pre-compiled component libraries, forcing all components (e.g., 2,000 icons in a UI kit) to recompile every time a consuming app builds. Creates unnecessary overhead.

Svelte doesn't currently support compiling libraries to publish as pre-built JavaScript, which means these components are recompiled every time.
