Placeholder: Briefly explain what frontend JavaScript frameworks are and why they are popular (structure, efficiency, community). Mention the rapid evolution and the challenge of choosing.
Placeholder: Define the target audience (developers choosing a framework, students learning web dev) and the guide's goal (to provide a comparative overview of major JS frameworks).
Placeholder: Introduce React (component-based, virtual DOM, Facebook-backed). Discuss key features, pros (flexibility, performance, large community), and cons (requires ecosystem knowledge, JSX learning curve).
Placeholder: Introduce Angular (comprehensive framework, TypeScript, Google-backed). Discuss key features, pros (opinionated structure, tooling, scalability), and cons (steeper learning curve, verbosity).
Placeholder: Introduce Vue.js (progressive framework, approachability). Discuss key features, pros (easy to learn, good performance, flexible), and cons (smaller corporate backing compared to React/Angular, potentially fragmented ecosystem).
