Now that @preactjs is so back, here's a blog post I wrote about its internals and how massively efficient it is

I am working in something *very* wild for Preact, which I believe will be a complete game changer. Actually I'm on vacation BUT when I get back I will continue working on this *very* wild thing. 6 year old idea but the last 2 years of Preact features make it infinitely better.

I just rebuilt unpkg.com with Preact. It was bliss. I’m loading it via import maps from the browser because Preact actually ships ESM! Unlike React that doesn’t even ship a file you can use in a browser. 🙈

Seeing Preact evolve from the 300k weekly downloads in May 2020 to the 6M we have today has been quite a journey. Thank you to everyone supporting us!

Since the launch of signals, I think you'll find a lot more Preact users are authoring class components again (I certainly am). Ergonomics are pretty darn good: nitter.catsarch.com/_developit/status/1567… Not that you have to support them, but they're far from dead.
who told you class components were dead?

Preact Signals just got a huge perf boost: Signals rendered as text/props & effects only "pull" as fast as needed for rendering. Since computeds run as-needed, they now only re-run as often as their downstream DOM output can be painted. H/t to @JoviDeC for making this happen.

🚦 Now that we shipping Preact signals integration for Lit with the @ lit-labs/preact-signals package, would anyone be interested in an Angular Signals integration? See a demo on the lit.dev playground: lit.dev/playground/#gist=330…

For the curious: Here is how you'd do <input bind:value={signal}> in Preact. Thanks to @preactjs 's options plugin API this is pretty easy to add on the fly. gist.github.com/marvinhageme…
Vue <input v-model=“name” /> Svelte <input bind:value={name} Why can’t we have that in React?

Got custom renderers working in @preactjs by implementing react-reconciler via option hooks. Here's react-three-fiber running in Preact, demo here: codesandbox.io/p/github/Cody…. I've released this under 0.x as the very creatively named preact-reconciler: npmjs.com/preact-reconciler.

Next version of @preactjs DevTools will display which exact hook caused a component to update. Previously it would just display "Hooks changed" and not say which of them did.

Getting React Spring to work with @preactjs was effortless! Now I can build more of those little and lovely details, making UI and UX more fun.

So @jviide, who is a wizard, rewrote Signals' reactivity implementation and it's now absurdly fast, and effectively memory-stable.

Today we are releasing Preact 10.11.0 and among various fixes and maintenance we have a new hook "useId"! You can now generate unique consistent identifiers! Demo: codesandbox.io/s/affectionat… Little writeup because I really loved working on this jovidecroock.com/blog/preact…
