I don't think this is quite accurate/precise... yes, with the right framework (like Next), React can do some server-side rendering of components. But that's not the same thing as being a true full-stack framework that can handle auth, databases, APIs, etc. out of the box. React by itself is very naked and would require frameworks/libs to add most of that functionality, but even then, it's not typically as fully-featured as things like Rails or Laravel/Symfony. On the other hand, you can do most of those things with Node, but that's just Javascript, not React.
