- If React is written in JavaScript, then how is it different than the plain JavaScript?
- JavaScript can also be used to build Web Applications, then why do we need React?
I would say React is an abstraction on top of JavaScript. React is basically a JavaScript Library which is popular because of its dynamic approach. Let's look at some of the few advantages of using React over JavaScript.
I tried adding few basic differences only , but there's a lot more to it. I hope it helped you in giving an overview of React and its usage.
Conclusion-
It's completely your choice whether to use JavaScript or React for your web development. As mentioned, For scalable and more complex applications React would work better than JavaScript. But if your application doesn't have much complexity, you might want to use JavaScript because of its simpler syntax and basic setup.
