React Js for Beginners A Comprehensive Beginner's Guide to ReactJS
Developers will often opt to use ReactJS in combination with Node.js to build reusable user interface (UI) components. React is an open-source JavaScript library and it is often used as the V in MVC because it uses a JavaScript virtual DOM, which is faster than an ordinary DOM. This allows for a simpler programming model that offers better performance. Additionally, despite being designed to be used in a browser, React is also able to be rendered in a server using Node.js. ReactJS's data and component patterns also help maintain large applications and improve readability across devices.Node.js uses a single threaded model combined with event looping that makes for a highly scalable server different from traditional servers like the Apache HTTP Server which create limited threads to handle a large number of requests. This single threaded model also prevents the server from responding in a non-blocking manner, since there are practically no functions in Node.js that directly perform I/O. Additionally, because they output the data in bulks, applications created with Node.js do not suffer from buffering.Businesses looking to develop their own fast-running applications will benefit from a tag-team combination of Node.js and ReactJS. Not only will they enjoy having thousands of previously built, open-source libraries for Node.js, but they will also enjoy the efficiency of its simplified model plus the support from the Node.js and ReactJS developer community.
