Sure, if you have only a very basic 1 page website with no routing, no backend calls, no components to reuse, etc. React will be a simpler and better choice. If you have anything more complex than that, like a real web application, Angular is an actual frontend framework, where React is just the modern jQuery. Angular is for software engineers, React is for web developers.
