In our modern world in tech where choosing the right framework, languages and library plays a very crucial role in the productivity of our projects or products, I will be comparing a popular front-end tool which is React and a Not-so popular tool which is Svelte.
I know we will all agree that react is a very popular framework adopted by a lot of big tech companies, eg facebook, Instagram, spotify, just to mention a few.
React has powerful features like Virtual dom which enables smooth updating of the UI by re-rendering when neccesary which improves performance, Component base-it helps manage and manipulate states and it also has a large ecosystem supported by a vast communities and infinite libraries
While on the other hand, Svelte is use by some big companies like yahoo, meta, apple. It's unique feature is allows smooth production process with fewer codes, it is also said to be truly reactive and has no virtual dom, The framework uses smaller app bundles but gives a better outcome. In addition, the environment is more approachable for people with limited tooling ecosystem experience.
I recently started my journey with React and it has been a bittersweet experience because it offers us varies of flexibilities that allow us manipulate and update states for a better performance, React has been quite complex, but I most say i enjoy using react.
I hope to learn alot from Hng, I have been preparing for a well and i really hope to do better than i did last year.

I think there are a lot of easy things in life but i can boldly say transitioning into tech as a full-stack dev hasn't been one of them, my journey so far as a web developer has made me more curious, patience and relentless, I focus more of my time as a backend developer because i find it more technical and complex.
My journey in Javascript wasn't really smooth i had difficulties comprehending some things, but as soon as i was comfortable with Javascript, I started learning Nodejs for the backend, I really enjoyed backend using ExpressHandlebars, i did not have too many challenges that troubled me for long, but i found API more challenging, I can't really say where my main problem lies but I am giving it a lot of practice and making sure i get better.
I enrolled for hng internship because it's a medium for me to test myself and also push myself, know my limit and work on how to be a very good, concise and dedicated developer.
