class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-angular-better-than-react\"><\/span>Is Angular Better Than React?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Both Angular and React have their set of benefits. Which framework is better for you depends entirely on your requirements. Say, one has to choose React vs. Angular 5 or React vs. Angular 6, the deciding factor would be the flexibility proposed for the current project. For a large scale feature-rich app, choose Angular, whereas a highly customized app solution can be built better with React.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-react-faster-than-angular\"><\/span>Is React Faster Than Angular?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, React works faster than Angular as it uses virtual DOM to look at the updates made to the HTML code. Angular, on the other hand, uses regular DOM, impacting its performance negatively. In React vs. Angular performance fight, React is a clear winner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-does-react-vs-angular-development-speed-compare\"><\/span>How Does React vs. Angular Development Speed Compare?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>React uses third-party libraries for developing web apps, whereas Angular offers in-built tools to solve comprehensive problems swiftly. It takes time to determine the right architecture and tools while working with ReactJS. Therefore, in React vs. AngularJS development speed comparison, Angular outshines React.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-is-react-so-popular\"><\/span>Why Is React So Popular?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>React is popular due to its ease of use and provision of automatic modification when updating UIs. One way data flow allows smooth operation of different components, making React a powerful tool. To top it all, Programmers can develop UIs that are SEO friendly with this framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"does-google-use-angular\"><\/span>Does Google Use Angular?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, Google uses Angular for developing and running many of its applications, including Google Cloud Blog, YouTube TV, Google Developers Experts, and many more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-angular-dying-because-of-react\"><\/span>Is Angular Dying because of React?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>No, Angular is not dying at all.

The learning curve in Angular is steeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-long-will-it-take-to-learn-react\"><\/span>How Long Will It Take To Learn React?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are well-versed in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, you can learn React in less than a week. However, if you are new to the world of web development, you will have to learn to create basic web pages with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript first. It can take a few months to attain proficiency in React, depending on your dedication to learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-does-react-vs-angular-market-share-compare\"><\/span>How Does React vs. Angular Market Share Compare?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us determine whether React or Angular JS has a higher market share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">React vs. Angular usage statistics according to SimilarTech:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table alignfull\"><table><thead><tr><th>Basis<\/th><th>React JS<\/th><th>Angular JS<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Trend<\/td><td>Rising<\/td><td>Falling<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Websites<\/td><td>1,085,447 +<\/td><td>504,890 +<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Results from Google Trends:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/ssl.gstatic.com\/trends_nrtr\/2051_RC11\/embed_loader.js\"><\/script>\n  <script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    trends.embed.renderExploreWidget(\"TIMESERIES\", {\"comparisonItem\":[{\"keyword\":\"React JS\",\"geo\":\"US\",\"time\":\"2004-01-01 2020-02-15\"},{\"keyword\":\"Angular JS\",\"geo\":\"US\",\"time\":\"2004-01-01 2020-02-15\"}],\"category\":0,\"property\":\"\"}, {\"exploreQuery\":\"date=all&geo=US&q=React%20JS,Angular%20JS\",\"guestPath\":\"https:\/\/trends.google.com:443\/trends\/embed\/\"});\n  <\/script>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-the-availability-of-react-vs-angular-jobs\"><\/span>What is the availability of React vs. Angular jobs?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A quick search over online job portals will give you an idea of the availability of jobs for both these app development frameworks.
