    2.) React is also a library, in some regards you could say its the equivalent of express, just that instead of being made for server side applications, it is made for frontend / client side applications. Its similar to vue, svelte and most closely, angular - under the hood react uses a diffing algorithm to only change the necessary html elements (dom elements) - it can also render html on the server with its react-dom-server apis - react is by no means a framework however as it doesn't give you any pre-defined patterns of working. You can code in any way you like and organize a react project however you like.

  4. Quick in-browser prototyping for React Components!
    2.5.) Typically react apps (either created manually or via create-react-app) render content on the client - first a raw html document is loaded (no content at all) - and then react is initialized along with your code. React then creates the necessary elements to match the "virtual-dom" it rendered with your code. This means that react applications often take a little bit of time to "start up" / show content to the user and this can result in different metrics called: cumulative layout shift, largest contentful paint, first contentful paint and time to interactive. These metrics all effect seo and user experience, which means that developers want to minimize this. In addition to this, since none of the html you send to the client is rendered (including the "head" of the document, your page usually doesn't include any seo tags - and this means that your page ranking can be effected in older search engines that don't support client side rendering. - if you only care about google or bing though, this doesn't really matter as they support it! :).

  5. Server Framework for Node.js
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    1.) Node is a runtime, node and express are totally different. Essentially node is a means of running javascript code on a server / locally (outside of a browser). It uses chromes v8 engine to do so and provides "native" apis for filesystem access etc... (essentially via exposing c libraries along with some "communicative" code) - express on the other hand is a library (some people would call it a framework but that is incorrect) to assist in building server side applications. Express is basically a simplification / library built on top of "native" node features to make life much easier :) - in short node is more equivalent to deno and bun - where as express is more equivalent to fastify or hapi.js.
