ReactJS

What is it?

ReactJS is an open-source JavaScript library developed by Meta (Facebook) for building user interfaces. It focuses on creating reusable UI components and efficiently updating the view layer based on application state.

What does it do?

ReactJS allows developers to build dynamic interfaces using a declarative approach. Its virtual DOM optimizes rendering performance, making complex user interfaces faster and easier to maintain.

Where is it used?

ReactJS is widely used in SaaS platforms, dashboards, enterprise web applications, single-page applications, and consumer-facing products where performance and interactivity are critical.

When & why it emerged

ReactJS was released in 2013 to solve performance and maintainability issues in large-scale frontend applications. It introduced a component-based model and virtual DOM to efficiently manage UI updates.

Why we use it at Internative

We use ReactJS for projects that require highly interactive interfaces, strong ecosystem support, and scalable frontend architectures. It is well-suited for complex, long-lived products.
