+# Material UI - Preact example
+
+## How to use
+
+Download the example [or clone the repo](https://github.com/mui/material-ui):
+
+<!-- #target-branch-reference -->
+
+```bash
+curl https://codeload.github.com/mui/material-ui/tar.gz/master | tar -xz --strip=2  material-ui-master/examples/material-ui-preact
+cd material-ui-preact
+```
+
+Install it and run:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm run start
+```
+
+## The idea behind the example
+
+The project uses Material UI with [Preact](https://github.com/developit/preact), which is a lightweight (3 kB) alternative to React with the same modern API.
+
+This example uses CRA with `react-app-rewired` for adding webpack aliases for Preact.
+
+It includes `@mui/material` and its peer dependencies, including [Emotion](https://emotion.sh/docs/introduction), the default style engine in Material UI.
+
+<!-- #host-reference -->
+
+If you prefer, you can [use styled-components instead](https://mui.com/material-ui/integrations/interoperability/#styled-components).
+
+## What's next?
+
+<!-- #host-reference -->
+
+You now have a working example project.
+You can head back to the documentation and continue by browsing the [templates](https://mui.com/material-ui/getting-started/templates/) section.
