(PS: The 2022 Stack Overflow Developer Survey results just came out and Phoenix overtook Svelte as the world's most loved web framework so hey, we had to adjust our thumbnail a bit 🤷)

Svelte Origins: The Documentary tells the story of how Svelte came to be, what makes Svelte different, and how it changes the game as a JavaScript framework. Filmed in locations throughout Europe and the US, it features Svelte’s creator Rich Harris and members from the core community who contributed to making Svelte what it is today.

Svelte Origins was filmed in late 2021, produced by OfferZen and directed by Dewald Brand, with shoots in the USA, the UK, Ireland, Sweden and Germany.
