IN A NUTSHELL Remember that time you couldn’t find the right LEGO piece, but then another unexpected piece just clicked? That’s what we’re doing with React and Angular. They’re like Batman and Superman, often rivals but occasionally teaming up for the greater good! BACKSTORY In the wild, wild west of app development, speed and flair are the law. That’s where our superheroes, Angular and React, come in. Some say they clash, but hey, peanut butter clashed with jelly once, and look where we are now!
