Why React?

Not so long ago, websites were simple HTML/CSS, incidentally sprinkled with a line of JavaScript. Clicking a link would discard the current page and load a completely new one.

Sometimes modern websites require to operate like full-grown applications. React makes that possible. React applications have an internal data-structure (state) and page elements (components) that represent the data. If the state changes, the relevant components update.

The data-driven and only-update-if-needed properties of React are great. Page reloads are a thing of the past, and only applicable data is exchanged with backend-systems. React applications respond instantly, resulting in a pleasant user-experience.

React enforces structured code and state management. Therefore it is the fitting framework to create rich and interactive user-interfaces. Additional advantages are:

• Components are reusable. React applications are known for their structured code and visual consistency.
• React applications are data-driven and make automated testing easy. It means quality-assurance and stability.
• Websites can be written as single-page applications or replace just a small part of an existing webpage.
• React is plain JavaScript. No magic. It can use other existing JavaScript libraries and be extended with custom code.
• The data-driven approach makes React an excellent team-player. It can connect to backend-systems to exchange data.
