Preact is a fast, lightweight 3kB alternative to React with a modern API. It provides the thinnest possible Virtual DOM abstraction on top of the DOM, utilizing stable platform features for maximum performance and a predictable diff implementation. Preact's small size ensures your application code remains the largest part of the bundle, resulting in less JavaScript to download, parse, and execute. It supports standard HTML attributes, passes props, state, and context to render, and offers seamless integration with the broader React ecosystem via compatibility layers.
