Library

A collection of reusable code that reduces the need to write repetitive or complex code from scratch; it allows you to control how and when to use it.

Framework

A predetermined structure that dictates how you develop software, limiting flexibility.

Library vs. Framework

A library allows you freedom when to use or how to use the code, while a framework defines a strict structure or architecture that you must follow.

Library Usage

You decide when or how to use the reusable components. Code is flexible and adaptable.

Framework Usage

Works within boundaries set by framework or architecture. You follow predefined patterns.

Declarative Programming

Focuses on what needs to happen, without specifying the exact steps. It's like giving instructions by saying 'make dinner' instead of listing every ingredient and step.

Imperative Programming

Specifies how to do something in a step-by-step manner. It's like providing a detailed recipe with every ingredient and instruction.

React (Declarative or Imperative?)

React uses a declarative approach. You describe what you want the UI to look like, and React handles the updates.

React: 'What' vs. 'How'

Instead of telling React how to update the UI, you tell it what the UI should look like based on data changes.

Declarative Benefits

Declarative coding often leads to simpler, more maintainable code, as it focuses on the goal, not the specific implementation.
