    Advantages of Angular Framework:

    • Cleaner Code using Typescript
    • Declarative UI
    • High Performance
    • Simplified MVC pattern
    • Code Consistency and Reusability
    • Modular Structure
    • Simplified Unit-Testing
    • Ease of Maintenance
    • Better Error Management
    • Easily Upgrade the version using Angular/CLI


    Advantages of ReactJs Framework:

    • Reusability of the code
    • Better UI Experience
    • High Performance
    • Fast testing
    • Quick Development
    • Code stability with one-way data binding
