What Makes React.js Scalable?
React.js was developed by Facebook back in 2013 and since then it has created a devoted community of software developers and companies.
A big chunk of this popularity is how scalable web apps built with React.js are. This scalability is due to the component-based architecture. These reusable components represent each part of the UI, and once the component is created, it can be used for a similar purpose within the web application. Software developers can also use open-source libraries of prebuilt components.
This approach significantly reduces the time needed to develop an app, but also makes it more scalable, as developers only need to create new components or use the existing ones to add new features.
What is React.js Used For?
Web applications created with React.js are also very efficient. This makes it a good choice for web services that rely on providing high-performing products to their users. React.js has been primarily used by Facebook and Instagram, quickly becoming popular among other web applications.
Today, the library is present in the code of products like Netflix, WhatsApp, Codeacademy, Dropbox, and Airbnb.

Which is better Vue.js or React?
Vue.js and React are both popular web frameworks. Although React is used more often, the employment of Vue.js is also on the rise.
How do they differ?
- React is a good fit for large-scale projects. It is a JavaScript library that makes use of vast integrations. Due to its use of components, react allows for the development of scalable, flexible, and complex applications.
- Vue.js is a JS framework, great for both small and complex projects. It is easier to adopt by a team of developers and makes for a fast software project development. It can be successfully used for rapid development of lightweight apps.
What is similar? Both frameworks:
- utilize a virtual DOM
- provide reactive and composable view components
- maintain focus in the core library, with concerns such as routing and global state management handled by companion libraries.
Who uses React.js?
One of the advantages of using React.js is its maintainability and scalability. This makes it a good option for both small projects and worldwide applications.
Top companies using Vue.js in their projects include:
- Netflix,
- WhatsApp,
- Codeacademy,
- Dropbox,
- Airbnb
- Facebook,
