Overview:

Today, using a framework like Angular or React to create a front-end experience is a very popular choice. It is uncommon for someone to create a front-end application without using a framework.
JavaScript has advanced significantly, becoming one of the most popular and commonly used programming languages. Nowadays, it’s uncommon for web developers to have to worry about browser compatibility issues and similar things, which was the main justification for the existence of frameworks like jQuery.
The benefits of employing frameworks are numerous, ranging from lessening the amount of boilerplate code to giving developers of applications a standardised framework and appearance. The main goal is always to spend less time on unnecessary tasks and more time on the crucial features we want to offer. And more power to it if it functions across browsers.
