PoV: How does React compare to Angular in 2024

Angular vs React

1. Benefits of React over Angular April 2022

2. Angular vs React Technology Angular React UI Components Integrated Material Design Components - Angular provides various material design components, allowing an easy UI configuration. Material-UI Library & Dependencies - UI tools are developed by the community and offer a huge variety of UI components. Learning Curve Hard to learn – has a lot of concepts and syntax to learn Easier to learn – because of its simple design, the HTML-like syntax for which allows templating, and highly detailed documentation Performance Slower Performance - the "Real" DOM and bidirectional data binding process make Angular's performance slower than React. However, it may change with the addition and improvement of Ivy, a new technology . Faster Performance - the virtual DOM trees do not overload the browser. Plus, the unidirectional data binding process reduces the workload. SEO Angular websites have trouble being indexed by popular search engines SEO-friendly - Enhance support for server-side rendering, making it a robust framework for content-focused applications

3. Angular vs React Technology Angular React App Structure Fixed and complex Component-based Model, Controller and View Flexible Component-based View only structure Compatibility Full backward compatibility Updates need to be installed to support backward compatibility Flexibility Angular elements can be utilized only within other frameworks, and codes have to be rooted within an HTML app. React offers the developers numerous libraries, tools, and varying patterns to opt from Developers Perspective Takes time to convey projects since it has a precipitous learning curve and utilizes a lot of needless syntax for the simplest aspects. Hence, it increases the coding time and delays the project deliveries. We can develop applications relatively rapidly. We can add new features to React through dissimilar libraries. Language You must utilize Typescript You can utilize JavaScript, and ES6/7, or we can choose Typescript Size It is larger in size, resulting in extended load times and performance on mobile It is smaller in size than Angular, so it is faster Popularity GitHub – 80.9K stars GitHub – 187K stars

4. Angular to React Migration Pros: Application Performance is better as it renders only the components which are updated instead of loading entire page Components reusability Easy parent child communication using Redux with React. Cons: Entire application architect structure needs to revamped as React does not have MVC architecture. Module wise migration takes a lot of time and effort for large applications.
