Suppose $\\varphi$ is an analytic self-map of open unit disk $\\mathbf{D}$ and $\\psi$ is an analytic function on $\\mathbf{D}$. Then a weighted composition operator induced by $\\varphi$ with weight $\\psi$ is given by $(W_{\\psi, \\varphi}f)(z)= \\psi(z)f(\\varphi(z))$, for $z \\in \\mathbf{D}$ and $f$ analytic on $\\mathbf{D}$. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the boundedness and compactness of the weighted composition operators $W_{\\psi, \\varphi}$. In terms of fixed points in the closed unit disk $\\overline{\\mathbf{D}}$, conditions under which $W_{\\psi, \\varphi}$ is compact are given. Necessary conditions for the compactness of $C_{\\varphi}$ are given in terms of the angular derivative $\\varphi^{\\prime}(\\zeta)$ where $\\zeta$ is on the boundary of the unit disk. Moreover, we present sufficient conditions for the membership of composition operators in the Schatten $p$-class $S_{p}(H^s(\\beta_1), H^q(\\beta_2))$, where the inducing map has supremum norm strictly smaller than~$1$.
