Hot Reloading with webpack | React Fast Refresh |
Holistic Software Development | Only UI Development |
Angular CLI | Create React App (CLI) |

Top Companies Using Angular are Google, PayPal, Upwork, IBM, Freelancer etc. | Top Companies Using Angular are Facebook, Instagram, Skype, Netflix etc. |
Which one we should Choose React Js or angular?
If you want to develop enterprise level application then you should go for Angular.
If you want to develop Highly interactive applications like Instagram then you should go for React JS.
React is Light Weight compare to Angular but Angular is a framework and react is a library so both are good at their levels.
Angular follows MVVC, dependency Injection pattern, so the application you are going to develop will be more structured and will be easily manageable by default. On the other hand React follows free to do anyway you want policy, so you can develop application however you want.
If you like React JS and you want to learn it we have a complete course on React JS, a list of articles that can help you to learn react in details. Click Here to check our React JS Course.
This blog is part of our Angular Framework Course so if you want to learn Angular Then Stick with this Course. We Will add a link in future once we have enough course data to share for Angular Development. Its in Progress 🙂
If you need a app with multiple events, more clicks, more scroll like Instagram and fakebook , then go for React JS.
If you want to build application like Freelancer, Firebase, then go for Angular.
If you have experience in C++, Java then choose Angular
If you have experience in HTML, CSS, JavaScript then choose React JS.
It doesn’t mean you can not choose React if you know C++ or Java, Its just you will find it easy to understand.
I think that is enough to get a understanding of both.
Choose According to your taste. If you are fresher go for React, if you have a bit knowledge of programming go for Angular.
