JQuery is just a hammer. Its not a framework. It does provide utilities like selectors, events, triggers, dom manipulation etc. React is a component based framework. It contains pages, routes, state management, caching etc.
You cannot compare those two.
In a way jQuery is low level just above vanilla. Wheras react has a minimum of 500 execution layers. Thats why its slow and painful in many cases.
- toastercat 3y agoTo be pedantic, React is a library, and doesn't provide page abstractions, routes, or state management outside useState and useReducer. It also doesn't have very strong opinions about how you structure your application (what a framework does). That's what Next.js is for. I agree with your overall sentiment though.
