Abstract

The aim of the article is to perform a comparative analysis of two programming frameworks on the example of one of the most popular currently React v17 and Svelte, which is gaining considerable popularity. Two applications with the same functionalities in both analyzed frameworks were implemented to conduct the research. The analysis mainly concerns the rendering times of views, but the application structures and their size are also compared. As a result of the research, it was found that the Svelte application is much more efficient compared to the React application.
