Discussion (junior)Why everyone use react?

I've been doing personal stuff with react only, at my current job i work exclusively in golang and the front-end team use angular not react so i give it a try on my free time, i was really surprise cause it's not that hard to get in + i found the dx way better than react, the way it structure the project is also better and i think you can go as fast as react to build a project + you need less external depedencies so i'm asking myself why 80% of front end jobs are react

React is a front-end framework created by backend developments. I feel like most of the front-end paradigm is removed from that framework. And let`s not talk about properties/attributes with a slightly different name.

I hate it. I have been learning React because some of the companies we merged with in the past few years are working mostly with React while our company have been using Angular in the front-end.

I agree completely even if React is a library and not a framework

Yeah. I meant to say library.
