LIMITATIONS OF REACT: WHAT MAKES YOU DOUBT
Like any other technology, there are many downsides of React, but they usually do not prevent its wide application for most web product creation. Here are some limitations of React.js you should be familiar with:
Studying Curve and Abstraction
The initial study of RJS can be steep due to introducing new concepts such as components, JSX, and unidirectional data flow. JSX, while simplifying the creation of interfaces, may need to be clarified for developers who are just beginning to learn the cons of React, as it is a mix of JS and XML-like syntax.
Need for Additional Tools
RJS, a library for creating a user interface, only provides many of the features that may be needed for a full web application out of the box. For example, one of the disadvantages of React is that it does not include routing, state management, form validation, animations, and other aspects often required during production.
Performance With Large Data Volumes
In some cases, it may encounter performance issues when updating large data volumes or complex interfaces. Incorrect use or insufficient optimization of components is one more of the dark side of React that can slow down the application.
Difficulties in Integrating With Some Libraries
Some libraries or frameworks may not be compatible with React's approaches, requiring additional work to integrate.
Syntax Stamp for Updates
Because RJS is evolving rapidly, library updates may sometimes require changes to existing code due to changes in the API or internal approaches.
Functional Programming
Using the functional programming approach, especially with hooks, may be unusual for programmers accustomed to the classical object-oriented style.
Component Rebending
The last of the negative aspects of React. RJS rebrands components when their state or properties change, which can result in unnecessary redraws and performance loss if no optimizations such as memorization or PureComponent are used.
