React from Basics to Real World Projects

Do you want to start using React but you’re not sure if React is just enough for your needs?

Probably you’ve heard also about Angular and Vue, so you may asking yourself:

Which one should I choose?

Before I’ve learned React I had a doubt – what I should bet on? Maybe Angular is better. Or maybe Vue?

I knew AngularJS already (first version of Angular) and I was afraid that Google (which developed Angular) may completely change it in the future.

That’s what happened with Angular 2. It was developed as something completely different and incompatible to Angular 1.

React has now 16th major version number and still sticks to the core concept.

Learning curve is also much easier for React comparing to Angular. Angular is written in TypeScript so you should learn it before learning Angular.

But what about Vue? It was clear for me that between React and Angular I will choose React. But there was also a third big player on the front–end development field – Vue.

Its learning curve is similar to React. Like React, Vue main concept is also much simpler comparing to Angular.

But React is developed by Facebook. They use it on Facebook. If they developed something which successfully work for billion dollar website, I guess it should also works as good for my projects. And as a bonus React has something additional to offer: React Native.
