React JS

Is React JS a Framework or library?

React JS is a library, a frontend JavaScript library. and now the question is why the React JS is a library not a framework?

Ok, let's catch that in letter.

What is React JS and why we've to learn:

From Wikipedia we've found - React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. It is maintained by Facebook and a community of individual developers and companies. React can be used as a base in the development of single-page or mobile applications.

So, if you want to build a frontend application in 2020, your first choice must be the React JS.

What make React JS difference from other framework or libraries:

React JS is different from other fromeworks and library is actually for it's flexibility. It is flexible and scalable. 

Let's try some basic comparison about React JS and Vue JS:

1. React js is only a view/templating library -- Vue is a full structured framework.
2. Any external plugin can easily be included in React jS -- Some external plugin/packages already installed in Vue JS.
3. Like in React, if someone needs routing, he has to install react-router-dom -- In vue, routing is a built in feature. [Sometimes, people may don't need the routing..]
4. React is adoptable with Redux(A state management library) - Vue is adoptable with Vuex(A state management library for Vue JS). So, in here react comes with some independent library.
5. Every component in react is isolated and independent.
6. React App is faster than Vue/Angular any framework apps in SPA's.
7. React is smoothly available for not only a small projects but also for large projects.
