DHTMLX vs. JointJS vs. Preact vs. VBScript Comparison Chart

DHTMLX is a JavaScript UI library that provides a set of highly customizable and flexible components for building modern and responsive web applications. The library includes more than 30 UI components, such as Gantt, Scheduler, Kanban, diagrams, charts, grids, spreadsheets, calendars, trees, forms, and more. DHTMLX helps to advance web development and build feature-rich data-intensive applications of any complexity. One of the key advantages of DHTMLX is its compatibility with different web frameworks, including React, Angular, and Vue.js, which makes it a great choice for developers who are already working with these frameworks. DHTMLX is also designed with performance in mind. Its components are optimized for fast rendering. A comprehensive and rich API provides a straightforward way to manipulate JavaScript/HTML5 UI widgets. The library has detailed API documentation, tutorials, and examples that help developers quickly get up to speed and start building their apps.

Preact provides the thinnest possible Virtual DOM abstraction on top of the DOM. It builds on stable platform features, registers real event handlers and plays nicely with other libraries. Most UI frameworks are large enough to be the majority of an app's JavaScript size. Preact is different: it's small enough that your code is the largest part of your application. That means less JavaScript to download, parse and execute - leaving more time for your code, so you can build an experience you define without fighting to keep a framework under control. Preact is fast, and not just because of its size. It's one of the fastest Virtual DOM libraries out there, thanks to a simple and predictable diff implementation. We automatically batch updates and tune Preact to the extreme when it comes to performance. We work closely with browser engineers to get the maximum performance possible out of Preact.
