    Please don't import SVGs as JSX. It's the most expensive form of sprite sheet: costs a minimum of 3x more than other techniques, and hurts both runtime (rendering) performance and memory usage. This bundle from a popular site is almost 50% SVG icons (250kb), and most are unused.

    πŸ¦– HTM: JSX without the transpiler. 700 bytes to run in the browser, or compile it away using babel-plugin-htm. (works with any VDOM library!) github.com/developit/htm

    Please don't open issues on JS repos asking why they aren't written in TypeScript :(
