Preact Development
Builds standards-based Preact applications with a native-first architecture, minimal dependencies, and a zero-build default.
The source repository doesn't declare a license. Check its terms before reusing the code.
Key features
- Defaults to HTM tagged template literals over JSX for simpler, no-build setups.
- Employs a native-first architecture using Web APIs and ES modules to minimize dependencies.
- Includes boilerplate and reusable component patterns for common UI tasks like data grids and modals.
- Provides a decision tree to select the optimal architecture, from zero-build prototypes to complex applications.
- Utilizes Preact Signals for efficient and ergonomic reactive state management.
Use cases
- Prototype and build single-page applications without a complex build process.
- Create interactive data visualizations by parsing CSV or JSON files.
- Integrate Preact components with native Web Components.
