ByteHide vs. JS-Confuser vs. JavaScript vs. Preact Comparison Chart

JS-Confuser is a powerful, open source JavaScript obfuscation tool that transforms your source code into a highly unreadable form, deterring reverse engineering, tampering, and unauthorized reuse while preserving full functionality. It offers multiple obfuscation techniques, including variable renaming, control flow flattening, string concealing, and function obfuscation, along with locks such as domain-based or date-based execution constraints and integrity checks to detect runtime modifications. Designed for flexibility, it provides obfuscation presets, ranging from 10 to 21+ transformation layers, and also allows fully customizable configurations to suit performance and protection needs. The tool operates entirely in the browser for fast, private obfuscation workflows, and includes advanced tooling features such as a playground for interactive experimentation, customizable options via JavaScript, integrated code prettification, and debugging support.

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.
