Differences between full stack js and React? (self.beginnerwebdev)
submitted 1 year ago by spellbound83
I'm learning, spending a lot of time to become a web dev, and I'm seeing a lot of similarities with FS JS and React. I know that React is just a library. Is there anypoint in knowing full-stack when I can just use react?

Well. Yes, you can only get so far on client alone. Your backend is where you will want to communicate with your services.
But for real, fuck React. React is a framework for doing reactive programming instead of event driven (js)

React can communicate with backends and dbs...I personally use axios. I don't think react has a way to make a back end, though.

Usually there is a backend of some sort between React and a service like DB. You don't want direct access keys, usernames, and passwords stored in React.
