ReactJS vs React Native: A Comparative Analysis!
The technologies React Native and ReactJS (also known as React) are prominent names in the software sector. Both of these technologies were coined by the tech giant Facebook to address certain issues. Two such issues were the clogging of productivity due to frequent updates to the system and the inability of users to access chats and view the news feed simultaneously. So, Jordan Walke, an engineer at Facebook, took a cue from XHP (a component library in HTML for PHP) and launched an early prototype of React, named FaxJS that soon became ReactJS. This was deployed on Facebook’s news feed at first, in the year 2011, and thereafter on Instagram in the year 2012. React was made open-source in 2013 which was declared at the JSConf held in the U.S. In a nutshell, React is a JavaScript library for developing web apps and extends support to the server and the front-end in an innovative way. Facebook engineers further expanded the functionalities of React by providing a framework that was used to build apps for iOS, Android, and the UWP (Universal Windows Platform). This framework was named React Native and was launched at the React Conf held by Facebook in February 2015. React Native was made open-source in March 2015. The fact, that ReactJS and React Native belong to the same ecosystem, baffles many. Even seasoned developers fail to comprehend their differences and as such are unable to identify the projects that are best suited to each of these technologies. This post provides wide-reaching insights on React and React Native, their differences, business benefits, and pitfalls. A thorough read will help you to understand the correct use cases for each of these technologies.
