We need to talk about Preact
summary
Claims that Preact is a 3KB alternative to React with the same ES2015 API, shows drop-in compatibility via preact-compat and a webpack alias, and ships a CLI create-preact-app. Benchmarks on ToDoMVC put Preact noticeably faster than React and Vue (tens of milliseconds), several companies (Uber Lyft Groupon Financial Times Pepsi Smashing Magazine) run it in production, demos build a small form app successfully, and missing features include fragments and core portals while async diffing and array returns are in progress.
