14 July 2021

• Learning Curve:
  • On Angular they need to learn a lot of things.
  • ReactJs is just a library and so it has fewer concepts to learn in comparison to Angular.
• Components and Size:
  • Large in size.
  • React on the other hand works on Virtual DOM which is a lightweight.
• Migration and Community Support:
  • Upgrades in React are easier than in Angular.
• Application:
  • Angular is most widely used for large applications like video streaming app or music instrument app.
  • ReactJS is just a library so it’s good for SPA (Single page application).
• Community:
  • Angular is less admired than React and faces a lot of skepticism, partially.
  • React framework is one of the most popular JS frameworks worldwide, and the community supporting and developing it is huge.
• Performance:
  • Angular performs worse, especially in the case of complex and dynamic web apps.
  • React’s performance is greatly improved with the introduction of the virtual DOM.
• App Structure:
  • The structure of Angular is fixed and complex, suitable for experienced developers.
  • The structure of React provides developers with the freedom to choose.
• State Management:
  • React, it uses Redux as the solution, while in case of Angular Redux is not used.
• Conclusion:
  • It might be frustrating if you are choosing Angular because after every 6 months you will experience major upgrades for Angular.
  • Beginner or have less coding practice also if you want stability for your project you can go with React.
