React.js
1.What is React.js?
- Developed by Facebook
- React is a view layer library, not a framework like Backbone, Angular etc.
- You can't use React to build a fully-functional web app
2.Why was React developed?
- Complexity of two-way data binding
- Bad UX from using "cascading updates" of DOM tree
- A lot of data on a page changing over time
- Complexity of Facebook's UI architecture
- Shift from MVC mentality
3.Who uses React?
Why should I use React?
- Easy to read and understand views
- Concept of components is the future of web development
- If your page uses a lot of fast updating data or real time data - React is the way to go
- Once you and your team is over the React's learning curve, developing your app will become a lot faster
React.js is a JavaScript library. It was developed by engineers at Facebook.
why people choose to program with React:
1. React is fast. Apps made in React can handle complex updates and still feel quick and responsive.
2. React is modular. Instead of writing large, dense files of code, you can write many smaller, reusable files. React's modularity can be a beautiful solution to JavaScript's.
3. React is flexible. You can use React for interesting projects that have nothing to do with making a web app. People are still figuring out React's potential.
4.React is popular. While this reason has admittedly little to do with React's quality, the truth is that understanding React will make you more employable.
