Using the best parts of React.js, Webpack, modern JavaScript, and CSS, Gatsby allows you to build your site as \u201cstatic\u201d files. Means, if you\u2019re planning to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipraxa.com\/blog\/headless-wordpress\/\">use WordPress as a Headless CMS<\/a>, Gatsby is a perfect choice.<\/p>\n<h4>Features That Make Gatsby the Most Popular JavaScript Framework:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Highly scalable<\/li>\n<li>Progressive Web App support<\/li>\n<li>Has a robust data plugin ecosystem<\/li>\n<li>Builds the fastest possible website<\/li>\n<li>Future-proofs your website<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>#14 &#8211; Next.js<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1442\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ipraxa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Image-3-2.png\" alt=\"image3\" width=\"607\" height=\"239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ipraxa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Image-3-2.png 840w, https:\/\/www.ipraxa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Image-3-2-300x118.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ipraxa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Image-3-2-768x303.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 607px) 100vw, 607px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nextjs.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow noopener noreferrer\">Next.js<\/a> is similar to Gatsby. Both use React syntax, but the main difference between them is that Next has Server Side Renderer (SSR), while Gatsby is a Static Site Generator (SSG). In Gatsby, you build your site as \u201cstatic\u201d files, but in Next, each request triggers a new rendering of the page because the server handles this part. From Progressive Web Apps to Pre-rendered Apps to SEO-friendly websites, you can use Next.js for almost everything.<\/p>\n<h4>Features That Make Gatsby the Most Popular JavaScript Framework:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Fully extensible<\/li>\n<li>Requires zero configuration<\/li>\n<li>Static exporting<\/li>\n<li>Works with every CSS-in-JS solution<\/li>\n<li>Optimized for a smaller build size and faster dev compilation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>#15 &#8211; Svelte<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ipraxa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Image-4-2.png\" alt=\"iamge4\" width=\"608\" height=\"323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ipraxa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Image-4-2.png 840w, https:\/\/www.ipraxa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Image-4-2-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ipraxa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Image-4-2-768x407.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 608px) 100vw, 608px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Used by renowned firms like GoDaddy, The New York Times, and Razorpay, <a href=\"https:\/\/svelte.dev\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow noopener noreferrer\">Svelte<\/a> is a relatively new component-based JavaScript framework that takes a different path than React and Vue. Instead of using techniques like virtual DOM diffing, Svelte compiles your code to pure JavaScript (Vanilla JS), making your websites and applications even faster.<\/p>\n<h4>Features That Make Svelte the Most Popular JavaScript Framework:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>A powerful, performant transition engine<\/li>\n<li>Trigger efficient, granular updates<\/li>\n<li>No complex state management libraries<\/li>\n<li>Zero client-side dependencies<\/li>\n<li>Comply with existing web standards<\/li>\n<li>Use your favorite CSS-in-JS library<\/li>\n<li>Create composable and reusable components<\/li>\n<li>Less boilerplate code and less development time<\/li>\n<li>Use the languages you already know &#8211; HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p align=\"justify\">So these were the best and most popular JavaScript frameworks of 2018.
