My skill level: Beginner
React is a popular JavaScript library for building interactive user interfaces from reusable components. It powers the front-end of modern single-page and server-rendered web applications.
Key Features:
- Component-based: Build encapsulated components that manage their own state and compose them into complex UIs.
- Declarative: Describe what the UI should look like for each state and let React update the DOM efficiently.
- Hooks: Manage state and side effects directly in function components.
- Rich ecosystem: Works with a vast ecosystem of libraries and tools, including Next.js.
