What it has built in isn't what makes it a library or framework, it's whether you call React code, or React code calls your code. In the former case, it would be a library, in the latter case (which is indeed the case) it would be a framework

Yes, that's one definition of framework (the one I prefer, too) but not the one the React team follows.

For them Next.js or GatsbyJS are frameworks that are built on the React library.

The React team can follow whatever self-delusional definition they like I guess 😜
