React vs Angular 2: Which one will be the right choice of Technology

It is very important to know that, the right choice of technology always matters.  Having experience working with a variety of technologists, I am very much excited to help you with how to decide between angular 2 and react frameworks. Angularjs is an open-source JavaScript framework providing everything needed to create a client-side or website.

It is worth noting that its second version, unlike the first one, has got rid of all unnecessary complexity. The team of angular 2 developers has added native apps support, server-side rendering, and much more. We also cannot omit the fact that angular 2 performance increases dramatically. First of all, angular is a google creation that was designed with simplicity in mind. It means that angular will not injure coders’ psyche while learning. Besides, many coders point out that if your angular code looks complicated  - you are doing something wrong.  The popular websites built on angular we can refer to GoodFilms, Freelancer, Upwork, etc.

ReactJS is a JavaScript-based open-source library with the JSX compiler. This library is mainly focused on the user interface allowing us to create reusable UI view components. From a technological point of view, react-based solutions are friendly. Their performance effects are high, so popular websites built on react we can refer to Netflix, Sidley, Walmart, etc. If you want to build your application using react js, check out some reactjs development services outsourcing companies.

Technologies Comparison - React vs Angular 2:

Now, let's dive deeper into details that are quite important during technology selection. One should be acknowledged with the kind of license that the framework is disturbed under. Several licenses are much flexible to work with and one can use them to create commercial apps without any problem. However, there are a variety of licenses that don't give you such freedom of action.

Angular and react are both open source with no restrictions towards the usage, angular uses MIT license against three closed BSD used to react. However, the only visible difference of BSD is the ban on usage of right holders' names for advertising purposes. The model-view-controller pattern allows us to split the project data into three components: Model, View, and controller. This way, the magnification of each component can be conducted independently leading to tighter code and increasing the quality of the final product. Among all the angular 2 features, the availability of MVC patterns out of the box is a significant advantage of reactjs.

Talking about angular, worth to mention its ease of display templates writing. Having a really straightforward UI for your data, angular allows you to get the end result with a more intuitive approach to the user interface that demands less code and seems to be more obvious.

In case of reactjs, it needs some special functions in order to manage data display. Mostly it means that you should define the way your data is represented before it will be coded into the DOM. That might cause a disconnect during its attempts to determine how a particular element will be rendered. Angular uses two-way data-binding, with its help, the framework is able to connect DOM model data via the controller.

In a nutshell, when a user interacts with inputs and provides a new value to your app not only can the view be updated but also the model too. Therefore, you do not need to write any method for tracking these changes within the application. However, this approach affects performance since a watcher for each binding is created. React uses one-way data-binding, where the flow data is directed only in one way. Due to this, you will only be aware of a place where your data changes. This approach is much easier to debug when it comes to large applications.

Angular creates a watcher for every binding in order to track all the changes in the DOM. As soon as the view gets some updates, Angular starts comparing obtained values with the initial ones. So that Angular 2 performance may cause some problems when it comes to massive apps. ReactJS experts have introduced the virtual DOM idea that allows creating light DOM trees and saving it on the server.

Every time a user interacts with the website, for example, filling the form, react creates a new virtual DOM for comparing it with the previous one. After the library has found all the differences between these two models - the virtual DOM model will be revealed. This way reacts performance increases when it comes to big amounts of data since there are no watchers.

If you can’t choose how to continue further with web development or mobile app development services for your business, you can outsource our skillful JavaScript experts who not only develop your application but also assist you right from your project requirement identification, planning, development, and deployment.

Happy Coding :)
