What are the differences between all types and frameworks of JS (JavaScript)?

Question

I do a lot of Python and I am good at it. Recently I have been making GUI scripts using Tkinter module. But those look old school. So I found on YouTube that you can use a JS called Electron JS to make GUI PC apps. When I searched this, a lot of frameworks of JS came. Example - Angular JS, Node.js , Electron.js etc. But what are the differences between them and pure JavaScript? What's the point of using those and the benefits?

Answer 1

Nice question! JavaScript is a language that can be used to build application, libraries, utilities and frameworks etc. A library is an extension in functionality to the Native compiled functionality of a language. Again, a framework is a platform for developing software. Well, You need a language to build a framework, but you can't build a language with framework! So, they do differ. You can use frameworks that you already mentioned(P.S: You didn't mention React.Js though its in the most popular list). Language and framework do differ a lot, google for more information. If you are looking to make an application, you can use Flutter, Django and etc etc. Good Luck. You can relate the benefits with the usage of them. :)
