Introduction to React

Introduction to React

React was created and maintained by Facebook and React has huge community support. React is a demanding skill in 2024.

React is an open-source JavaScript library for building rich user interfaces and is capable of building full-fledged single-page web applications.

React has a Component-Based Architecture which means it will break down applications into small encapsulated parts and compose to create more complex UIs. React components are reusable which web applications optimize.

React uses a Virtual DOM (Document Object Model) to optimize the rendering process. When any change happens in our web application insert of changing the entire DOM I will change the virtual DOM first and then efficiently apply the minimal necessary changes to the actual DOM. This will make our web applications more optimized and smooth user interface.

React uses Declarative Syntax, Which means a developer can describe how UI looks based on the state React takes care of updating DOM to match the state and it helps the developer to understand and debug code easily.
