Inferno vs Monkberry: What are the differences?

Developers describe Inferno as "A fast, React-like JavaScript library for building UIs". Inferno is an isomorphic library for building high-performance user interfaces, which is crucial when targeting mobile devices. Unlike typical virtual DOM libraries like React, Mithril, Virtual-dom, Snabbdom and Om, Inferno uses techniques to separate static and dynamic content. This allows Inferno to only "diff" renders that have dynamic values. On the other hand, Monkberry is detailed as "Blazingly fast, small 1kb and simple JavaScript library for building web user interfaces". Why is Monkberry so fast? Even in comparison with React, Monkberry is 10 times faster, sometimes 100 times faster It's because Monkberry will do only necessary dom updates, and does it in a completely different way than React does. Monkberry compiles template to plain JavaScript to gain an advantage by using v8 hidden classes and reduce call stack..

Inferno and Monkberry can be categorized as "Javascript UI Libraries" tools.

Some of the features offered by Inferno are:

  • One of the fastest front-end frameworks for rendering UI in the DOM
  • Components have a similar API to React ES2015 components with inferno-component
  • Stateless components are fully supported and have more usability thanks to Inferno's hooks system

On the other hand, Monkberry provides the following key features:

  • Small 1kb minified & gzipped
  • Simple, small learning curve
  • Fully tested

Inferno and Monkberry are both open source tools. Inferno with 13.8K GitHub stars and 636 forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Monkberry with 1.46K GitHub stars and 77 GitHub forks.

      What are some alternatives to Inferno and Monkberry?
      React
      Lots of people use React as the V in MVC. Since React makes no assumptions about the rest of your technology stack, it's easy to try it out on a small feature in an existing project.
      Preact
      Preact is an attempt to recreate the core value proposition of React (or similar libraries like Mithril) using as little code as possible, with first-class support for ES2015. Currently the library is around 3kb (minified & gzipped).
      Svelte
      If you've ever built a JavaScript application, the chances are you've encountered – or at least heard of – frameworks like React, Angular, Vue and Ractive. Like Svelte, these tools all share a goal of making it easy to build slick interactive user interfaces. Rather than interpreting your application code at run time, your app is converted into ideal JavaScript at build time. That means you don't pay the performance cost of the framework's abstractions, or incur a penalty when your app first loads.
      jQuery
      jQuery is a cross-platform JavaScript library designed to simplify the client-side scripting of HTML.
      AngularJS
      AngularJS lets you write client-side web applications as if you had a smarter browser. It lets you use good old HTML (or HAML, Jade and friends!) as your template language and lets you extend HTML’s syntax to express your application’s components clearly and succinctly. It automatically synchronizes data from your UI (view) with your JavaScript objects (model) through 2-way data binding.
