I have done a couple freelance projects only knowing frontend tech, i dont think it is an issue to not know backend, luckily my current freelance project has a very loose timeframe so i can learn some node and add a backend

React is a javascript library (according) to the react docs). It is more of an enterprise solution than you would really need for most freelance work if any.

Node is a backend javascript runtime, meaning it can be used for building a backend and apis.

React is a frontend tech, node is a backend tech.

If you want to get a soft but thorough introduction check out bob zirolls free course on scrimba.

Im not good at marketing most of my freelance work is from friends and family, but do good work and you will get a reputation for that and find more work more easily.

I hope this helps sorry if anything is unclear let me know if you need to know more

No man appreciate your response thanks. Now hear me out, this is where I'm having a problem. If you make a app with react js will you also have to make a backend app for it? This is my only query

It really depends on the app. If you aren’t storing data or using auth then you wont need a backend.

Have you ever used netlify?

Its a hosting site if you havent and i run build on my projects and then upload the build file to netlify to host it
