In this post I will be listing you some cons of using ReactJs as compared to using NextJs.
Some Cons of using ReactJs-
- Problems with SEO
- Non-Vigilant Focus on User Interface
- Lack of Documentation
- JSX as a Barrier
What to replace React with?
The simple answer to this question is NextJs
Why NextJs?
Next JS offers server-side rendering (SSR), whereas React Js offers client-side rendering, improving the application performance. Next.js is a framework, used to build UI and pages for the web app with React library, while React.js as a library is a part of a framework, the UI components part.
ReactJS helps in building the beautiful UI of a web application while with NextJS, we can build an entire web application.
Conclusion
So, which one is better? There is no answer to this question but according to me NextJs is better that React because it allows the programmer to write Backend and Frontend at the same time

NextJS uses ReactJS, as does Remix. Whilst the title is catchy you're not saying don't use React you're saying render your React server side.
You got me 😂
Oh, that's interesting! I didn't know that React causes SEO problems.
But I can't comprehend the lack of documentation – there is a huge documentation on the React site itself, what do you miss?
The issue is actually SPAs aren't very good at being indexed by crawlers it's not an issue with React directly. NextJS solves this by actually serving unique HTML per page rather than having one page manipulated to look different depending on the URL.
