React is the front-end library of Javascript which follows Object-orientation with class-based and purely object based architecture to provide the single page application solution for the web development.
React is just a library and not a framework like Angular where all other things like Routing, HTTP modules, Forms modules are included. React gives you the flexibility to integrate any third-party library to add these functionalities to your application.
Also, React has the declarative approach means you just have to declare the functionalities with the data model, and React will update the view and re-render it internally.
In the declarative approach, let's say you ask an artist to draw a painting of some natural scenery and he will get you an awesome painting. But if you're asking the same thing to a 5-year-old boy then you have to mention the exact things like mountains, trees, birds, and blue sky. This is nothing but an imperative paradigm.
Some of the amazing features of React are as follows:
- It uses Virtual DOM for faster and optimized view renders.
- Uni-directional data flow from parent to child components.
- XSS - Cross-site scripting protection.
- Component-based architecture
- Typescript and Javascript platform support
- Flexibility to add any external library without any restrictions.
- Server-side rendering
So these are some of the features provided by React. Also, you can watch the tutorial made for busy developers who wanted to learn react in short time.
