• Introduction to Preact: A smaller, faster React alternative

Preact is a lot faster and lighter than React.

It aims to be mostly compatible with React.

For near 100% compatibility, Preact offers an additional package:

preact-compat

Preact is compatible and even encourages using htm over JSX, so you can use regular HTML attributes.
