Marko has been around for over a decade at this point and powers most of eBay. It's not the oldest or the largest, but it's got a pretty solid track record

is there a second app interesting app written with it? what is the sentiment about Marko from the people who use it everyday?

Why are you copy pasting the same comment, under different usernames everywhere?

Honestly I don't know... I'm somewhat skeptical about these "next big thing that will fix all your pains in web development". There is so much fragmentation in JS libraries / frameworks. Angular, React, Vue, Angular, Asto, SolidJS, NextJS, Nuxt, Qwik... The list is so overwhelming. Almost each one claims that it fixes a problem in other framework, a year later the other framework fixes an issue... I think it's better to stick to a big old player, such as Svelte.

No, just kidding. I believe in progressive enhancement, and none of these does this very well.

Svelte / SvelteKit is very lightweight but probably not a good choice if your app quickly grows in complexity. Angular has a larger community, long term support from Google, more people are familiar with, has rich functionality (including forms, localizations) and is well structured for huge projects. Once NextJS, SolidJS and others were interesting because of SSR, but Angular added this too (and continues to improve) in the recent versions.
