React

The world's most widely used UI library. Component-driven, battle-tested, and backed by an unmatched ecosystem.

Overview

React is Meta's declarative library for building user interfaces from composable components. Instead of manipulating the page imperatively, you describe what the UI should look like for a given state, and React efficiently keeps the DOM in sync.

Sixteen years of production use at the world's largest applications have produced an ecosystem — routing, state management, testing, component libraries — that no competing framework matches. React skills are also the most available in the hiring market, protecting your long-term maintenance options.

Key features

  • Component-based architecture
  • Declarative rendering with a virtual DOM
