What is Million.js?

Million.js is an extremely fast and lightweight (<4kb) virtual DOM that makes React components up to 70% faster.

Oh man... Another /virtual dom|javascript/gi framework? I'm fine with React already, why do I need this?

Million.js works with React. Million.js makes creating web apps just as easy (It's just wrapping a React component!), but with faster rendering and loading speeds. By using a fine-tuned, optimized virtual DOM, Million.js reduces the overhead of React (try it out here)

TL;DR: Imagine React components running at the speed of raw JavaScript.

Installation

The Million.js CLI will automatically install the package and configure your project for you.

Codebase

This repo is a "mono-repo" with modules. Million.js ships as one NPM package, but has first class modules for more complex, but important extensions. Each module has its own folder in the /packages directory.

You can also track our progress through our Roadmap.

Module Description
million The main Virtual DOM with all of Million.js's core.
react / react-server React compatibility for Million.js.
preact / preact-server Preact compatibility for Million.js.
compiler The compiler for Million.js in React.
jsx-runtime A simple JSX runtime for Million.js core.
types Shared types between packages

Acknowledgments

Million.js takes heavy inspiration from the following projects:

  • blockdom (Géry Debongnie) Thank you to Géry pioneering the concept of "blocks" in the virtual DOM. Many parts of the Million.js codebase either directly or indirectly derive from his work.
  • voby (Fabio Spampinato) The Million.js "template" concept is derived from Voby's template() API.
  • Hack the Wave (Melinda Chang) for their homepage.
  • react and turbo for their documentation. Many parts of the current Million.js documentation are grokked and modified from theirs.
  • ivi, Preact, and more

Million.js is being used at companies like Wyze and Dimension, as well as open source work like Quartz, TinyPages, and more.
