alt Hacker NewsHonestly, mostly for the fun of building it and seeing how small and simple I could make it. While big solutions like Preact or Vue are great, sometimes you just want a tiny zero-dependency script without the overhead. And it turned out to be quite nice as I may say so

First time I’ve seen Preact described as a “big solution”!
preact/signals-core has 0 dependencies, your project could also benefit from mentioning what primitive is being implemented for the reader's information. The size difference is negligible. The readme creates a false dilemma where there's either Mador or "having to use a framework" but it hasn't been the case for ages - as I mentioned above the major frameworks have decoupled versions of their reactivity available. This makes the other reply where "the frontend community deserves tools like this" sound weird because it ignores the great tools that have been available for a while.
Good learning experience but a very weird presentation.
