Giant flowers to accompany the large mushroom
Wife and I have been working on props for my daughter's living literature competition in a few days. Her group is doing "Alice in Wonderland", and we made a giant mushroom (and working on some big flowers).

@filipefreire.com it's still a symbol in Svelte (and thus supports renaming and syntax highlighting). Original screenshot likely used a more generic (html) language.

That it did!
Also over 20k/week downloads last week, and already a 20% increase this week (before this release 😁)!
I'm glad people are finding the library and benefiting from the effort.

Note: you will want to use the latest `vite-plugin-svelte` to remove the "No scopable elements found in template..." warning or handle it in svelte.config.js.
HUGE shoutout to @rich-harris.dev and @dominikg.dev for the quick response and fix 🫶

↪️ REPL compatibility
LayerChart is now compatible with the Svelte REPL due to recent improvements to the REPL (thanks @dummdidumm.bsky.social!) and library (css-only).

↔️ Simplified integration
Integration for popular frameworks like shadcn-svelte, Skeleton, daisyUI, and Svelte UX are now just a single CSS import.
We've also added examples for each as well as standalone usage (no Tailwind) with light/dark mode toggling.

For example, from a quick search for "Military spending as a share of GDP", I saw a spike in the early 1990s I was curious what it was, but found a different data story (no spikes over 20% except the recent Ukraine).
