Overview

React is a JavaScript library for describing state-driven interfaces and composing them from small components. It can be adopted in part of an existing page and paired with renderers such as React DOM for the web or React Native for mobile.

Based on official documentation; not hands-on tested · Content checked:

What it controls

Components encapsulate state and rendering logic, accept data, and compose into larger interfaces. React updates the relevant view when state changes. The README links JSX examples, gradual adoption, server rendering, and the relationship with React Native.

Where it fits

It fits interactive web applications with substantial UI state, reusable interface elements, and teams that want clear component boundaries. Its gradual-adoption model also supports replacing one region of an existing application at a time.

Boundaries to review

React is a UI library, not a full-stack framework that chooses routing, data access, and deployment for an entire application. Web and native share the component model, but DOM and native renderers expose different platform APIs. New projects should use the current official start guidance to select the surrounding stack.
