React Vs. Angular

It is a very exciting time in the world of Software Engineering. Frameworks such as Vue, Angular, and React are really streamlining the way we produce web applications. I know… I know… I know what the Gurus are thinking…. “REACT isn’t a FRAMEWORK”! This is true. React is actually a library. A very sexy library to say the least. I recently have been blown away by the level of productivity that React provides. I have taken a considerable amount of time to learn to completely wrap my head around Angular, and I am now switching gears to take a deeper dive into React. I initially was not a fan of the idea of injecting HTML-like code within JavaScript. It just didn't feel right. Just a few weeks into using React and I must admit that I am rapidly changing my perspective. I will be generating content to compare and contrast these two technologies. I hope that my perspective can prove useful to others diving into these awesome technologies.
