Is there a list of similar alternatives?

I think https://github.com/choojs/nanohtml is quite similar. I bet there are tons. It would be nice to see the different variations.

They both use template tags but generate different output formats. htm converts the input to virtual dom nodes for preact, react or any other virtual dom based framework. It's basically an alternative to JSX.

nanohtml on the other hand doesn't return vnodes, but strings instead, making it impossible to use with a virtual dom based library.

Well said @marvinhagemeister. I think it might actually be worth adding a readme section explaining more clearly how htm is different than other solutions.

It's most similar to hyperx and t7, just taking a different approach by using the browsers parser and adding a bunch of JSX familiarities to the syntax.

Ok, thank you. I'll dig more into the subject.

@marvinhagemeister nanohtml seems to be outputting DOM elements on browsers and String otherwise.

But they are prototype.
