What is React

React is a free, open-source JavaScript library for building dynamic and interactive user interfaces on web and native platforms. By using reusable components, it streamlines the development of complex applications, making state management and performance optimization easier. Its declarative nature allows developers to describe the UI state, resulting in more predictable and maintainable code. The virtual DOM enhances app responsiveness by minimizing direct DOM manipulations. Backed by a vibrant community and extensive resources at react.dev, React empowers developers of all levels to create efficient and scalable applications.
