Preact is a fast 3kb alternative to React with the same modern API. It emphasizes performance, size, and developer experience. Preact is designed to be lightweight, with a simple and small API surface. It provides fast rendering and small bundle sizes, making it a great choice for performance-critical applications.

Compared to React, Preact does not support all React features and APIs, but it offers optimized alternatives that provide a better performance-cost ratio. Additionally, Preact supports both server-side rendering and progressive web apps out of the box, making it easier to build web applications that work well in various scenarios.
