About

Handlebars is a Mustache-compatible templating engine that compiles templates into JavaScript functions.

React is a popular open-source JavaScript library for building dynamic user interfaces through reusable and stateful UI components, originally created by Facebook.

It supports JSX markup, a virtual DOM rendering system, hooks for state and lifecycle management, server-side rendering, concurrent rendering, and is often used as a base for other full-stack frameworks such as Next.js or Remix.
