React is a JavaScript library that offers a different and more pleasant approach compared to traditional DOM manipulation.
React allows building websites like LEGO blocks by creating small, self-contained components that can be easily reused and composed into larger structures.
With React, there is a unidirectional data flow from parent to child components, making debugging easier and more predictable.
React focuses on user interfaces and component rendering, while additional functionalities like data fetching, state management, and styling are achieved through other libraries, making it flexible and suitable for various platforms.
