Why Use a Frontend Framework?

Modern frameworks solve common challenges in building complex, interactive user interfaces

Component Architecture

Break UI into reusable components that manage their own state and logic, promoting code reusability and maintainability.

Reactive Data Binding

Automatic UI updates when data changes, eliminating manual DOM manipulation and reducing bugs.

Ecosystem & Tooling

Rich ecosystems with routing, state management, testing tools, and CLI utilities for optimized development workflows.

Popular Frontend Frameworks

Explore the leading frameworks powering modern web applications

React.js

A declarative, component-based JavaScript library for building user interfaces developed by Facebook.

Key Features:

  • Virtual DOM - Efficient updates with minimal DOM manipulation
  • Hooks API - State and lifecycle features in functional components
  • JSX Syntax - HTML-like syntax for component rendering
  • Rich Ecosystem - Next.js, Gatsby, Redux, React Router
Components Hooks Virtual DOM JSX

React Code Example

// Functional Component with Hooks
import React, { useState } from 'react';

function Counter() {
  const [count, setCount] = useState(0);

  return (
    <div className="counter">
      <h2>Count: {count}</h2>
      <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>
        Increment
      </button>
    </div>
  );
}

export default Counter;

When to Choose React?

  • Large-scale applications
  • Cross-platform (React Native)
  • Strong ecosystem needed
Learn React

Vue.js

A progressive framework for building user interfaces, designed to be incrementally adoptable.

Key Features:

  • Reactive Data Binding - Automatic sync between data and DOM
  • Composition API - Flexible component logic organization
  • Single File Components - HTML, JS, CSS in one .vue file
  • Gradual Adoption - Can be added to projects incrementally
Reactivity SFCs Directives Composition API

Vue Code Example

// Single File Component (Counter.vue)
<template>
  <div class="counter">
    <h2>Count: {{ count }}</h2>
    <button @click="increment">Increment</button>
  </div>
</template>

<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue';

const count = ref(0);
const increment = () => {
  count.value++;
};
</script>

<style scoped>
.counter {
  padding: 1rem;
}
</style>

When to Choose Vue?

  • Rapid prototyping
  • Gradual adoption needed
  • Developer experience focus
Learn Vue

Angular

A platform and framework for building single-page client applications using HTML and TypeScript.

Key Features:

  • Full MVC Framework - Opinionated structure
  • TypeScript First - Strong typing out of the box
  • Dependency Injection - Modular service architecture
  • Batteries Included - CLI, routing, HTTP client built-in
TypeScript RxJS DI Modules

Angular Code Example

// Component with Template
import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-counter',
  template: `
    <div class="counter">
      <h2>Count: {{ count }}</h2>
      <button (click)="increment()">Increment</button>
    </div>
  `
})
export class CounterComponent {
  count = 0;

  increment() {
    this.count++;
  }
}

When to Choose Angular?

  • Enterprise applications
  • Large teams needing structure
  • Full-featured framework needed

Svelte

A radical new approach to building user interfaces that compiles to highly efficient vanilla JavaScript.

Key Features:

  • No Virtual DOM - Compiles to efficient JS updates
  • Truly Reactive - Automatic reactivity without hooks
  • Less Boilerplate - More concise than other frameworks
  • Small Bundle Size - Minimal runtime overhead
Compiler Reactivity Scoped CSS Stores

Svelte Code Example

// Svelte Component (Counter.svelte)
<script>
  let count = 0;
  const increment = () => {
    count += 1;
  };
</script>

<div class="counter">
  <h2>Count: {count}</h2>
  <button on:click={increment}>Increment</button>
</div>

<style>
  .counter {
    padding: 1rem;
  }
</style>

When to Choose Svelte?

  • Performance-critical apps
  • Smaller projects or prototypes
  • Minimal boilerplate desired
