- React vs Angular: which framework should you choose? They both provide, on the surface, a very similar set of features - a rich client-side JavaScript & Typescript user experience, with state management and components. But once you get into it, the two provide radically different experiences that appeal to very different people and companies. One is safe, and the other is disruptive. Which one you choose could depend on who you are!

For the past 5 years, Every 6 months I come and search for a react / angular comparaison . This one is by far the most straightforward and elegant! Inspiring! Well done 👏
I’m glad you liked it, thanks for the kind words !
agreed. that elder pro knows how to explain his stuff. 👏👏👏👏
Thanks @Kodaps Academy
I'd say Angular is what taught me how to write organized code. I've coded for years before trying Angular, and my code always was a tangled mess. Being forced to follow a strict structure helped me learn how to think about code organization and structure, even outside of Angular.
Sounds, good. Maybe I should try angular. Bought a course since last year, never made time for it. Thanks for the motivation.
Maybe I should learn Angular too
Same here
Java did the exact same thing for me. Coming from JS, even when coding in Node with Express, the organization and structure weren't even close to the standards that Java pushed me to, and I'm very glad for how much it improved my way of thinking and my overall coding
Totally agree with you !
I know angular and react as well !
But still, I do prefer Angular for larger projects…the way angular manages state…
I worked in a startup and I didnt face any difficulty with Angular also! Once you master Angular, you would just love it!
Can u tell me from where u learned angular ? And can u share or suggest any free resource for angular ?
This is the best comparision of angular and react I have ever seen. It took me more than a year to learn most of the core knowledge of Angular. But totally worth it. A simple custom directive, or pipes can do you a huge favor while you are writing a lot of repetitive code but of course takes time.
I'm glad you liked it :)
So good is poetic
Or you can do the same thing in React in an afternoon...I guess we have difference of opinion in "worth it".
React is easy to learn because it’s a library. It is incomplete by nature. The question to ask yourself is are you willing to pick up React, only to then learn React Router, React Redux, and/or Nextjs to get all its potential?
I’d rather have a framework that I spend a few weeks learning but I know I can stick to than learn a library in a day but have to learn a bunch of other packages and frameworks to fill it’s gaps
I've coded with Angular for 3 years and was looking everywhere for a proper comparison. Most of the videos out there are just direct, out of the definition, robotic comparisons but this one brought me the clarity I was looking for. Thank you!
My pleasure, glad to be of service !
Im looking into which of these two I'll be learning next, and I really appreciate your summary. You've provided a nice perspective overview, thanks.
I'm glad to have been of service, thanks for your encouragement!
One note from me: People say that React is easier to learn but this is a big lie. In React you truly need to understand what happens under the hood in order to not break it. Plus you will have to learn and use 4-6 other external tools like react-router, react-hook-form, MUI, and Redux so that you can create a proper app. All that together might probably take you longer to learn than Angular. Not to mention that the way that functional components and hooks work in React is a very unusual programming way and it will also take some time to understand.
The way you enunciated differences between these two great tools helped me clear my thoughts whether to stick with Angular or switch to React. Now I got a very philosophically reasonable explanation. I stay with Angular. Thanks, man.
I love when you explanation started with the logo/ concept/ vision of both frameworks. Didnt notice that before. The video duration and the career advice are pleasant! Keep up the good work! Best regards from Switzerland.
I'm glad you liked it! (I've a childhood friend in Yverdon in Switzerland, by the way :))
congrats dude, this has to be THE go to video for anybody who would really like to understand the principle differences between the two. I now know which direction I will be focussing my attention. I won't say which - because as you so rightly state, it's up to the individual, their requirements, what they are happy with, what a client might need....
The way you explain things to keep them just enough silly and interesting while still having the value of information is really legendary. Thank you for the video
Thank you very much :)
You did a great job on your explanations. I use Angular to build ERP systems after trying React..
I love how you explained the technical intricacies in a storytelling fashion!
Glad you liked it ! :)
jumped to the closing remarks, and that 2 mins discussion was so well stated and straightforward than a lot of reviewed out here
This was absolutely amazing. Putting things into the most simplest of terms and not even coding terms. I had my eyes set on react for my next big project but after this, I see that I really want angular instead. I'll be using react for my personal projects and small things I just want to have fun with. But my long term, hope to be companies some day, I will be using angular. Thank you!
I'm glad I was able to break things down clearly, it hasn't always been my strong point :)
This is a great video. I know both Angular and React, but I prefer Angular.
The reason why you prefer Angular..??
@@kishorek4319 Angular is more agile than react, and if you are disciplined in your coding, Angular is easy to maintain than react, at least for me.
@@davebudah Thanks. Where I can learn Angular.??

Very well put. I think angular is still underrated, such a powerful framework it is. Specially for young devs like me, i get to learn so much while working with angular. React is just messy
Yeah I started with Angular (and Typescript) and I think that probably helped me when I learnt React :)
well you don't know how to structure your projects properly in React.
same. react is kind of unorganized. with typescript, angular is more organized
@@KodapsAcademy My former company used nothing but js for development and I was lucky enough to be the one to start converting it all to Typescript (and had to learn it). I can't go back to vanilla JS. I just see no upside to using js when working with giant repos. HOWEVER I had some insanely annoying headaches when I accidentally typed one thing wrong, and anything API related is a pain to type.
Glad to hear I'm on the right track! I picked Angular and feel very comfortable... you made a very elegant and clear comparison. Thanks!
I'm happy I was able to make the difference between the two clear and that I comforted you in your choice, glad to be of service :)
Honest and straight to the point. I have always had a conviction to learn Angular, and you really helped me to decide. Thank you.
I’m very glad to have been useful :)
I feel blessed to have found your video. I am getting into JavaScript now (after HTML and CSS) and was wonding what path to go down after I really dive deep into JS. I do have plans to take a lot of TS courses and dive deep on that before going into Angular & React. You have shown me that both would be very advantageous for my career and I am excited to continue down this path. Thank you so much for your guidance!
I think I might do angular first after having a strong grasp on JS & TS..... Then React.
I'm glad to have been of service, have fun learning! :)
I love how your mind works and the way you speak
Thank you for your kind words :)
Thank you, you video helped me a lot to decide what to learn !
Excellent breakdown! Very easy to follow! Extremely clear!
Glad it was helpful!
This is the best comparison I've heard so far. Thanks!
Glad to be of service :)
Wonderful start video for someone who for the first time wants to understand the difference between the two languages.
One thing that's often glossed over is how one or the other might be better depending on the *type* of application you're building - not just the size or the industry. If you are building data-entry-heavy line of business software - like a SaaS-based accounting system, you might lean more towards one or the other as opposed to if you were building an e-commerce sight, where the client will be much more about presenting things and much less about data entry. This is kind of touched on here based on the industries where you find one vs the other, but I'd love to see a deeper examination brought in these sorts of comparisons!
Hands down the BEST PRESENTATION on the RELEVANT DIFFERENCES, NG vs. React.
that was greatly helpful and this background philosophy makes things more clear to me, thank you.
I'm glad I was able to be helpful :)
genuinely speaking..this is the best comparison video i have ever watched....a perfect blend of technicality and philosophy...instant sub...
in my opinion both frameworks are great. Most people talk about the pros. The biggest con of angular is when you have to manage the state of the component manually (especially when you have a large table and you want to render only specific rows when the state changes). Then you have to use zones and its very confusing and code will look very clunky. React on the other hand will look clunky right from the get go.
@@AndyFarrell008 hmm.. I haven't tried that.. I typically use the MatTable's dataSource attribute.
Ive not worked much with React but it feels like if you are going to make even a small app Angular wins out every time because the pieces are there for you to pick up when you need them. The rigid structure forces you to write cleaner code and organise things in a way that makes them easy to extend, understand and reuse.
I feel like react takes just as long to learn because you still have to pick up the extra pieces as you go. Only difference is they aren't waiting for you to plug and play like they are in angular.
Awesome video! Thanks for the explanations, they were really helpful for me!
It is so peaceful to listen to you teach and I understood everything with clarity. Thank you.
I'm glad you like it, and I'm happy to be of service :)
Starting with Angular 1 & then 2+ taught me a lot of good practices & patterns. Now when i work on other frameworks or even Vanilla JS projects i try to replicate them & also see lot of libraries trying to replicate what angular does like intercepters, resolvers & others. This was a great sensible video rather than just dismissing one or the other without any solid reasons.
I agree with the thoughts in this, when i see big projects in large organizaitions with big teams they most certainly will pick Angular over react for better control over the coding process & quality. For small projects or fast changing one's it would be react.
If that's so then y a big organisation like Facebook using React?
A counter example does not disprove a probability or a tendency, only an absolute.
Wow! This is the best comparison video I have seen. Kudos!
Thanks! ;)
I think its the best explenatory video i have seen for Angular and react!! Thank you!!
I would like to see the difference in the code. Are there any chance of you bringing a video about it? It would be neat :)
This is a phenomenal video. I really enjoyed it. Thanks!
Wow!!! You didn't just tell the difference but also told how to tell the difference. Excellent!!! 5 stars!!!
Thanks ! :)
Great video but it did not provide the answer for the question I was looking for. Which one is recommended for a simple application with real-time communication, small pieces really, such as task got completed and we want to update status. Or maybe we have a dashboard, where we want to update various GUI components based on the back end database, updating them every minute. Which is more efficient and fast for that purpose, leaving out the complexity of each implementation?
such a fresh take about the differences between these frameworks, super helpful :-)
My thoughts: I find it silly that the only downside sited with angular, it is usually a steep learning curve, implying (incorrectly) that react is easy to learn. Certainly to get a hello world running, but with the fast pace of releases with breaking changes (class components to functional components, hooks, nextjs), the entire ecosystem is hard to master, and it is just as steep a learning curve but spread over time, and frankly a lot more confusing.
A Request: would love to see a video with a deeper dive into technical differences of these frameworks, especially that you've worked with both :-)
This is so clear, welldone!
Glad to be of service :)
i learnt how to structure my services and functional components with React. This kind of liberty of choice tends to give the programmer the ability to learn from its own mistakes and provide a better paved way to understands how to provide a better architecture solution based on needs. Angular on the other hand impose an architecture and you need to wrap your head around it. I prefer to break things and move fast rather than follow the imposed structure of a framework.
On 5:40 you said there are links in the description, but they are missing. The only link is to the Kodaps page.
Other than that interesting look about the differences 👍
i am an aspiring programmer trying to find my path in the the IT industry.
thanks for this comparison, you have made me decide to continue and put my focus on learning Angular.
❤
Thank you, good job!
I develop rather native desktop apps with C# (mainly for industrial automation) and work on a huge and old php-shop for my customers.
I feel like i should study more webdevelopment on top, so i studied angular and i like it, but it took a while to study the concepts and to get a "ok"-workflow.
Today i had the thought, that maybe i can make faster progress with React. I think i want both, but if its faster with react, then i think i should switch to that now and come back to Angular later and rather in the long term.
Its rather a priority question. I work with C#/PHP to buy some time for studying (so to speak). Thats tough! so the quicker it brings some money, the more important it is.
What do you guys say?
Any similar situations/experiences?
Thank you
This is the best and mature comparison I have ever seen for Angular vs React specially when you are at decision point which is to learn first. Thank you very much.
Thanks for your kind words, I’m glad it was helpful :)
The best comparison video of all time. Straight up and honest.
Thank you very much :)
Excellent content... a unique way of looking at the language selection 👍
Thank you very much :)
What a great video Absolutely love the storytelling
I’m glad you liked it :)
This is the most poetic discussion about frameworks I have every seen. Preferring the MVC model as an objective c coder
Thank you very much :)
Thank you for the wonderful explanations
I'm glad you liked them, and I'm grateful I was able to be helpful!
Great video, full of insights. Thank you.
I’m glad it was helpful :)
very helpful explanation. love the philosophy between those two
I'm glad it was helpful :)
Great Stuff, thanks for sharing to us.
Very good, thank you. Liked and subscribed.
Glad you liked it, and welcome aboard !
Thanks for a really clear explanation.
I should so be using Angular based on the Shield/Explosion analogy!
Its interesting because I feel really uncomfortable with React - even though I use it daily at work. I just don't like it.
I am going to try Angular - maybe it will suit mu personality more!
I do feel like I wasted time (5+ years now) learning (well fire fighting) React.
So did you found angular awesome?
Wow, this is the best comparison video!
Building a microservices app from the backend and will prefer angular. U made it clear! Great video. I am still new to angular but finding it better organized than react.
I’m glad you liked the video, thank you for your kind words :)
This is a very fair, much detail and experience comparison. I've been fun with Angular for years and now it's time to come with React. Every competitor always have some room to learn from.
5 stars explanation, Thank you.
Your perspective is unique but very understandable.
Thanks :)
great comparison! thanks
Glad it was helpful! :)
very good video, both are different so they serve different purpose, it reminds me of django and flask.
This is a very great analysis. I really liked it
I do use both. It depends on the job required or what the client wants.
Wow. An extremely enjoyable and thoughtful comparison.
Glad you liked it :)
Great comparison with rich philosophical insight. As a dotnet developer, angular feel so natural. It's a pity everybody wants things done quickly and opting for react. If you are comfortable with angular, the speed of development will be as fast as react or even faster on the long run.
new coder here! i was looking at jobs for frontend web developement. This was the best and straight to the point. Very good job brother
Glad this was helpful ! :)
thanks for the tips.
I like the illustration of shield vs atom and reaction.
I started with react, but you know what they say, once you go Angular, you never go back (or at least I say). I dont like css html and js in the same file. I dont like how everyone has different tools to support their react projects. Standardization in angular makes me faster.
What a GREAT explanation and recommendation thank you. As a more creative type of developer, I will be diving into React.
Great video. Nailed it
damn this is literally the best video i've ever watch when asking about 1 vs the other
Wow, thanks :)
For some reasons I keep going back to angular. Just enjoy working with it
Guys anyone kindly suggest which is best platform and where I can learn Angular..??
Nice comparison. I'll go with Angular, i think i can learn how to organize the code, i more back end oriented, but i want to learn a front end framework
this is video i was looking for, everyone was talking about which one we should learn, no one was talking about which one we use for what and where. you answerd this question.
Glad to be of service!
After starting to convert whole .jsx into .tsx,
I feel Angular and React both are equal to learn. especially typescript in Redux.
Angular it is then... i learned both a while back. but never got around to finding out why or where i could use one over the other. since there is basically no difference and i like the the structure and mentality of Angular, i'll stick with it for personal projects until i find anything lacking. which would warrant looking up videos like this again for alternatives.
Wow. This was awesome. . . (So Angular is for squares, jk.) "They" should have you teach all technical things, introducing them in such intriguing and relatable ways.
Yeah "Angular is for squares" is perhaps not the most flattering way to portray the difference between the two :D I'm glad you found my explanations helpful :)
Which pays more?
I was thinking why there's not a solid and straight-forward comparison between 2 things in CZcams that actually help you choose something!? I got what I asked for, between angular and react...
Glad to be helpful :)
2 min in mind blown !!! Great stuff, thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
i'm kind of hoping that if you learn one.. then it makes it 100% easier to learn the other. React is going quite well.. but there are so many technologies.. and pay is so-so for them in the UK.
Well explained. Thanks for the video.
One request: Can you share your thoughts on Next.js and when should I choose it.
Or please correct me if i am wrong
I think NextJs is addressing key aspects like server-side rendering and routing, providing a smooth experience for React developers. Though it doesn't directly bridge the gap between Angular and React, it is just enhancing the React ecosystem, offering features like automatic code splitting and SEO optimization.
I'm a fan of NextJS, generally speaking, because of its DX and ecosystem and its implementation of server components with React. It still isn't as opinionated as Angular is (e.g. there is no equivalent of pipes or directives) but whereas React is "only" a library, with NextJS it is a framework.
Got it, Thank you@@KodapsAcademy
I my left my country (Angola) moved to India to study computer science and engineering and i am really struggling to choose one (Angular, React and Nodejs)

very nice. thank you.

Very good!!!
Don't wanna deal with observables, directives or other obscure tricky ng stuff. React has a closer approach to plain js.
Nice analysis. Let me try solidJS real quick
I have a video on the subject if you're interested :) czcams.com/video/A_dUsSzxwkI/video.html
Excellent perspective
Thanks! :)
for me angular i like the environment of framework its more stable can find everything one place just like supper market
react is also good but its like a branches you need to jump from place to other
can you answer me why sould we learn typescript before any framework ? (im trying to get better at css and going to start js and from what i heard i should pick a framework after than css framework ) should i leanr typescript before any of them?
You need to learn Typescript if you want to learn Angular, because Angular relies on Typescript. You can code a React app without using (or learning) Typescript however.
@@KodapsAcademy ok since im planning to learn react then ill keep it to later thank u
Hello i am doing a project for school.
I need to create a website for web and android. I need to use Database for my data.(SQL? MAYBE)
Wich program do you suggest that i use to build the website.
I need to have a admin system, where he changes data and a client system.
Thank you!
Hi it really depends on what you are comfortable with, a good choice could be a Nest JS backend with a Postgres or MySQL database.
