    ReactJS uses JSX. It’s a syntax extension that allows HTML with JavaScript mixed together. This approach has its own benefits, but some members of the development community consider JSX as a barrier, especially for new developers. Developers complain about its complexity in the learning curve.

    ReactJS Covers only the UI Layers of the app and nothing else. So you still need to choose some other technologies to get a complete tooling set for development in the project.

  • Poor Documentation

    It is another cons which are common for constantly updating technologies. React technologies updating and accelerating so fast that there is no time to make proper documentation. To overcome this, developers write instructions on their own with the evolving of new releases and tools in their current projects.

    The high pace of development has an advantage and disadvantage both. In case of disadvantage, since the environment continually changes so fast, some of the developers not feeling comfortable to relearn the new ways of doing things regularly. It may be hard for them to adopt all these changes with all the continuous updates. They…

    React’s design principles and component-based architecture make it relatively easy for new developers to learn. Its use of JavaScript and JSX (JavaScript XML) allows developers to write HTML-like syntax directly within JavaScript, streamlining the learning process. The clear structure and documentation also contribute to a gentler learning curve compared to some other frameworks.

    React offers a suite of powerful developer tools, such as React Developer Tools for Chrome and Firefox. These tools allow developers to inspect and debug React component hierarchies, analyze state and props, and track component performance. This enhances the development experience and makes it easier to identify issues.

    React Native, an extension of React, enables developers to create mobile applications for iOS and Android using the same principles and components as React. This promotes code reuse and reduces development time for multi-platform applications.

    React can be rendered on the server side (using frameworks like Next.js), which improves search engine optimization (SEO) compared to traditional single-page applications. This server-side rendering allows search engines to crawl and index the content more effectively.
