The most feature-rich template library for JavaScript that fits in 510 bytes

For the past few weeks I was developing a project for an IoT device that had an embedded web server. The bad thing about these devices is that they have only about 4kb of flash memory and even a single extra byte can cost you precious program memory.

So, one of the challenges I had to face is how to fit the most advanced Web UI I have ever built in about 1Kb (CSS+HTML+Js)?

Guess what? It seems that you can fit most of the nice core features of React.js in only 510 bytes!

Of course you could fetch your libraries as an external resources, but what's the fun on that! -- Not to mention the case where you have no internet but only a point-to-point wifi connection.
