PREACT - Fast 3kB alternative to React, with the same ES2015 API

•    Javascript

---

PREACT is a fast 3kB alternative to React, with the same ES2015 API. It provides the thinnest possible Virtual DOM abstraction on top of the DOM. The web is a stable platform, it's time we stopped reimplementing it in the name of safety. Preact is also a first-class citizen of the web platform. It diffs Virtual DOM against the DOM itself, registers real event handlers, and plays nicely with other libraries.

React - JavaScript library for building user interfaces

•    Javascript

---

React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. Lots of people use React as the V in MVC. React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Design simple views for each state in your application, and React will efficiently update and render just the right components when your data changes. React can also render on the server using Node and power mobile apps using React Native.

A library for building asynchronous user interfaces. Familiar: Yolk is a small library built on top of Virtual DOM and RxJS. It exposes a very limited API so that you don't have to spend weeks getting up to speed. Yolk components are just plain functions that return JSX or hyperscript.

miso - :ramen: A tasty Haskell front-end framework

•    Haskell

---

Miso is a small "isomorphic" Haskell front-end framework for quickly building highly interactive single-page web applications. It features a virtual-dom, diffing / patching algorithm, attribute and property normalization, event delegation, event batching, SVG, Server-sent events, Websockets, type-safe servant-style routing and an extensible Subscription-based subsystem. Inspired by Elm, Redux and Bobril. Miso is pure by default, but side effects (like XHR) can be introduced into the system via the Effect data type. Miso makes heavy use of the GHCJS FFI and therefore has minimal dependencies. Miso can be considered a shallow embedded domain-specific language for modern web programming. To get started quickly building applications, we recommend using the stack or nix package managers. Obtaining GHCJS is required as a prerequisite. stack and nix make this process easy, if you're using cabal we assume you have obtained GHCJS by other means.

asm-dom - A minimal WebAssembly virtual DOM to build C++ SPA (Single page applications)

•    C++

---

asm-dom is a minimal WebAssembly virtual DOM to build C++ SPA (Single page applications). You can write an entire SPA in C++ and compile it to WebAssembly (or asmjs as fallback) using Emscripten, asm-dom will call DOM APIs for you. This will produce an app that aims to execute at native speed by taking advantage of common hardware capabilities, also, you can use your C/C++ code without any change, you haven't to create a binding layer to use it (as we have to do if we want to use a C++ lib from JS). Basically we are creating an app in C++ that call javascript if needed instead of the opposite. You can write only once in C++ and share as much code as possible with desktop/mobile apps and web site. If you want to learn more about performance, please see this. asm-dom is a low-level virtual DOM library. It is unopinionated with regards to how you should structure your application.

Mithril is a modern client-side Javascript framework for building Single Page Applications. It's small (8.18 KB gzipped), fast and provides routing and XHR utilities out of the box. It supports virtual dom, which is a Javascript data structure that describes a DOM tree. It consists of nested virtual DOM nodes, also known as vnodes.

purescript-pux - Build type-safe web apps with PureScript.

•    PureScript

---

Build type-safe web applications with PureScript. Pux has not focused on performance yet. The slow performance arises from translating Pux's (smolder) virtual DOM to React's virtual DOM. The goal is to write a purescript virtual DOM module for smolder, which would avoid that translation step and could be optimized for a monadic datastructure. I suspect this would achieve performance on par with Halogen.
