The Differences between React and Angular

What is React JS?

React is a JavaScript library developed by Facebook which allows you to build UI components. It facilitates the creation of interactive User Interfaces. It also makes the code easier to understand and launch. React Java Script framework uses server-side rendering to provide a flexible, performance-oriented solution.

What is Angular?

Angular is a structural framework for developing dynamic web apps. It allows developers to use HTML as a template language and allows HTML’s syntax to express the application’s components briefly and clearly.

It is a fully featured JavaScript framework that helps developing dynamic, single page web apps. It also supports the (MVC) programming structure.

Key Features of React

• Allows you to use 3rd party libraries

• Time-Saving

• Simplicity and Composable

• Fully supported by Facebook.

• Better user experience and very fast performance.

• Faster Development

• Code Stability with One-directional data binding

• React Components

Key Features of Angular

• Built-in support for AJAX, HTTP, and Observables

• Large community support

• Consistent with technology

• Typescript offers efficiency

• Cleaner and crisp Coding

• Enhanced support for error handling

• Seamless updates using Angular CLI

• Forms and validation

• Shadow DOM / local CSS

• UI and Business Logic Separation

Advantages of React

Here, are pros/benefits of using React:

• Easy to learn because of its simple Design
• The HTML-like syntax for which allows templating, and highly detailed documentation.
• Developers can spend more time writing modern JavaScript, and less time worrying about the framework-specific code.
• Enhance support for server-side rendering, making it a robust framework for content-focused applications.
• Migrating between versions is in React.
• Facebook offers “codemod” feature to automate much of the process.
• Skills learned in React can be applied to Native development.
• When you combine with ES6/7, ReactJS is perfect for managing heavy loads with relative ease.

Advantages of Angular

Here, are pros/benefits of using Angular:

• Offers clean code development
• Higher Performance
• Material Design-like Interface
• An angular framework can take care of routing which means moving from one view to another is easy
• Seamless Updates using Angular CLI

Disadvantages of React

Here, are cons/problems of using React:

• Integrating Reacts in the traditional MVC framework like Rail requires complex configuration.
• ReactJS would require the users to have in-depth knowledge with respect to the integration of user interface into M VC framework.

Disadvantages of Angular

Here, are cons/problems of using Angular:

• An angular feature can be confusing for newcomers.
• The documentation on the official Angular site is difficult to understand
• Steep learning curve
• Scopes are hard to debug Limited Routing.
• There are so many versions of Angular
• SEO capabilities are limited

Which is Better?

• Both React and AngularJS are great options with respect to single page applications. However, both of them are also entirely different instruments. There might be statements like React is better than Angular or also vice versa.

Whatever may be your perception of the discussion about React Vs. AngularJS, you need to make choices based on your, requirement of functionality and usability.
