Top Reasons to Use React.JS | Pragmatic Digital

12 November 2020

Have you thought about using React.JS, but just weren’t sure if you should take the plunge? Do you have questions about this platform? Then you’ve come to the right place. You’re not alone, as many site owners and developers are not sure if React.JS is the right platform for their needs.

In this article, we’ve put together some of the top reasons why you should give React.JS a try. Let’s get started!

What is React.JS?

It’s a JavaScript library that’s been built and is maintained by Facebook. It’s considered an efficient, flexible, declarative open source JavaScript library, which makes it easy to build simple frontends for web applications. That’s it!

React.JS Makes It Easy to Create Custom Components

React includes JSX, which is an optional syntax extension. With this extension, React makes it easier to write your own components. And what’s more, these components accept HTML quoting, and makes all subcomponent rendering easy for developers.

One thing to note is that JSX is often disputed. Even so, it can be a useful tool in the creation of high-volume apps and custom components. It also provides developers with warning and error messages and prevents code injections.

Increases Productivity & Makes Maintenance Easy

Updates can be a hassle due to the application’s complex logic, or if a change in one component affects others. In response, Facebook has included the ability to reuse system components in React. Developers have said this is one of the best features of React.JS.

Component reusability makes it easy for developers to reuse the same digital objects. The process is also simplified. For example, developers may start out with a simple component such as a button, and then move the button into wrapper components, which are then moved to the root component.

This is a better way to manage code maintenance, as well as growth. This is because each component has their own internal logic in React, which is easier to manipulate, leading to increased productivity for developers.

Ensures Faster Rendering

If you’re building a high-load application, it’s important to consider the structural impact of overall app performance. While the most current platforms and engines reduce bottlenecks. However, because the DOM is tree-structured, even a minor medication can cause issues with the user interface at a higher level.

Facebook created a virtual DOM feature to get around this issue. This is a virtual representation of DOM, which makes it easier to test changes in the virtual DOM to check for issues after each modification. This makes it easier to maintain high app performance, while ensuring improved user experience.

React is SEO-Friendly

Search engine optimisation is crucial to any online business. With faster rending and a lower page load time, apps tend to rank higher in Google search results.

React is faster compared to other frameworks, and it works to reduce page load time. This is a great help to businesses who want to rank first in Google’s search engine results.

React Includes Helpful Developer Tools

Learning new technologies is fun; however, you need to be able to use the tools correctly. To make it easier for developers to learn React, Facebook has created React dev tools and Chrome dev tools in their React.JS framework.

These tools help developers learn about child and parent components, see component hierarchies, and inspect components’ present state and props.

Developers Can Build Rich User Interfaces

When a user interface is poorly designed, chances are the application will not succeed. That’s understandable. On the other hand, if the UI is high-quality, then users will have a much better experience, which increases the chance the app will be a huge success.

React allows developers to create rich interfaces that offer better experiences for users. This is essential to the ability of an app to survive or not. It’s that simple.

Provides Strong Community Support

React has another benefit, which is very strong community support. React developers are constantly contributing to making the framework better. In addition, React experts upload free tutorials on YouTube, as well as creating articles and blog posts with in-depth tutorials and information on React.

And if you’ve ever noticed, React experts are always working to solve problems on sites such as Stack Overflow and Quora. So, if you have a problem, it’s easy and fast to head over to one of these sites to get the help you need from experts, when you need it.

Provides Better Code Stability

React uses a downward data flow, which works to make sure the parent structure is damaged by modifications in the child structure. If a developer has to make changes to an object, they only modify the states of that object, and make the correct amendments. In this way, only a specific component is affected by changes.

This data flow and structure make it easier to maintain code stability, while making the application run smoother at the same time.

React is Used by Fortune 500 Companies

If you still need more convincing, then here’s one more reason to choose React. Literally thousands of companies of all sizes are making the switch to this framework. This includes Fortune 50 companies, along with smaller businesses. Consider some top brands that use React including Airbnb, Tesla, and Walmart, amongst others. These companies have all built their mobile apps with the React framework.

With so many companies successfully making the switch to React, what more convincing do you need?

React is Easy to Learn

React.JS, when compared to other frameworks, is much easier to learn. This is one of the main reasons that React has become so popular. It helps developers quickly build projects. React is simpler and easy to learn, while also be quicker to implement.

That’s why so many large (and small) organisations are choosing to go with React over other frameworks.

Summing It Up

The best things about the React framework is that it’s response, advanced, and doesn’t carry huge risks. This is a library that’s easy to use and provides developers with a wide range of tools to make better, user-friendly applications. This is why React.JS is a great choice for businesses of all types and sizes.
