The best Front-End frameworks 2022

It’s 2022, and it’s that question again which frontend framework to use? Are they maintained, production-ready, good learning curve vs benefit balance and active community? Let’s do a quick recap for the best of the best out there.

React
https://reactjs.org/
https://nextjs.org/
https://reactnative.dev/

I will put React in the number 1. The best of the best, and there are many reasons for that. First, because it has a vast community, simple structure, modular, component-based, and they also care about the world. They are a big supporter of Ukraine and the free world. That’s already alone is something.

What’s also very important with React and all the JavaScript (JS) based frameworks is that the learning curve and commons are very similar between the backend and the frontend. Also, React will let you build native mobile apps using React Native. So fewer code paradigms, similar codebase and a better understanding of each other’s code for various roles. Even though most of the developers are becoming full stack over time, thanks to these frameworks listed here, they can handle both backend and frontend code.

Also important to mention that React has Next.js for the backend. Quote from their web —

Next.js gives you the best developer experience with all the features you need for production: hybrid static & server rendering, TypeScript support, smart bundling, route pre-fetching, and more. No config needed.

Honourable mention is also React alternative Preact. They still hold a strong position, but I’m taking it as an alternative and would still go with React. But they have done an outstanding job there https://preactjs.com/. Preact also supports Ukraine.
