Front-end engineering of webpages continuously experience growth as the number of devices used in accessing it increases. Users tend to spend more time on a webpage if it has a simple and appealing interface. In the past decades, building a responsive webpage is tedious as the developer must make use of the Hypertext Markup Language, Cascading Style Sheets, and vanilla JavaScript. Nowadays, all these have been combined into an easy-to-use template known as a framework. However, many frameworks have been developed by developers from diverse backgrounds, and the choice of which framework to use must be made rightly. Hence, we embark on a research study to examine the features, the strengths, and the benchmark characteristics of two selected JavaScript front-end frameworks (React.js and Angular.js) to ease the decision-making process for developers.
