Web development encompasses both the front-end and the back-end. A web developer should be able to make the design aspects of the website and bring them to life and they also have to know how to create scripts that will enable the website to communicate to a web server and so on.
The thing about web development that you have to know is that as time progresses, the once highly complex code has been getting more simplified, which is some good news for web developers.
It has been around for quite some time and it has become quite popular due to the fact that its main feature allows you to add features whenever and wherever you need it.
Back in the day, developers who want to implement certain features can actually do so, but the huge problem was that they have to create a huge code overhead which requires more time to do. And, because there is a lot of coding to do, there is a huge risk that you will run into a lot of problems during the testing phase.
This is where Vue.js comes in. It makes sure that you can create a buildable framework in that you can add any component you want so long as you want it. This makes it so that you have all the things you want in a website with the added performance.
Angular.js is touted to be the most used in this day and age mainly because of its ease of use as well as its component-based nature.
Like any developer’s dilemma, implementing additional components back in the day would require a lot of code overhead. Angular 2 (the recent version) makes it so that you do not have to undergo the arduous coding process and you just have to select the components that you want and it will be implemented without much thought.
Although the previous two were able to use a more components-based approach, it is during the arrival of the React.js where things truly changed for the better.
The main feature of this framework is that it renders a webpage that is complete with the components that you want before loading the actual components. In other words, you can preview the features long before anything gets loaded, giving you a glimpse of the website without waiting for a long time.
Furthermore, the performance of React’s framework is so much better thanks, in part, of a virtual document that is commonly known as the Document Object Model or DOM. This is just a simplified copy of the real DOM which allows the user to use the framework to change specific parts of it without having to actually refresh the webpage each and every time something is changed.
To put it succinctly, changes are seen the moment they are implemented.
