Inferno is all about performance. FB took notice so much, that the React team hired the creator of Inferno. I believe the bundle is smaller than React, but I think in terms of bundle size, Preact comes on top. the API is a drop in replacement for React 15, but for Fiber (React 16), as far as I know they are not compatible in some respects, e.g. Portals, Fragments. See github.com/developit/preact-compat....

If you're going to use it for follow buttons etc., I think it's a great choice.
