Is Preact a fine alternative if all you’re after is JSX and declarative UI?

Preact is an excellent alternative to React that keeps things minimal, understandable, and fast.
You must be ready to build a lot yourself. As nontrivial as can be.
One radical lightweight alternative to React is Svelte

https://svelte.dev/

which is completely dependent on a compiler since it bakes in all of the updating logic at that stage. I haven't done big projects with it but for little projects I have been amazed at the speed and the small size of the bundles.
