Whether it’s Python or JavaScript development, we often compare programming languages or frameworks to see which one is better.
Sometimes, there is overwhelming evidence in favor of one over the other thanks to its exceptional benefits. At other times, however, the choice is not so clear-cut.
React vs. Angular decidedly falls under the second category.
First of all, Angular is a fully fledged framework and React is a library. Secondly, both tools can be used to create highly functional and aesthetically compelling products to the same standard.
When faced with any choice of two or more tools, the key to choosing the right one is not looking at how impressive or popular the technology is or what the biggest tech companies are using. Instead, you should consider how well it will answer the specific needs of your own project and whether your developers have the necessary skill set to apply it successfully.
In this article, we won’t set out to pick a winner; our goal is to introduce the main benefits and uses of both React and Angular so that you can make an informed decision about which one is more suitable for your project.
