A small JavaScript library for creating HyperText (DOM elements or HTML strings) with plain JavaScript function calls, usable on both client and server. It provides a concise h() syntax for tags, ids, classes, attributes, styles, and event listeners without a templating language.

Use cases

• build html dom elements in javascript without jsx
• generate html strings on the server
• create reusable interactive html widgets
• write frontend views with no build step or template engine
• attach event listeners while constructing dom nodes

When to choose

• you want lightweight html creation in vanilla javascript without a framework
• you need the same view code to run in the browser and on the server
• you prefer composing ui with plain function calls over html templates or jsx

When to avoid

• you need a modern maintained framework with virtual dom diffing and ecosystem support
• you want declarative templates or server-side rendering of full pages
• your project requires recent browser standards support and active maintenance
