⚡ Frontend Frameworks

Frontend frameworks are libraries that simplify the development of the client-side of web applications by providing reusable components and structured patterns for building interactive user interfaces.

They typically offer component-based architecture, declarative rendering, state management, client-side routing, and integration with modern build tools to enable the creation of performant, maintainable, and responsive web applications.
