Can you combine React and Flask in the same project? Why?

Question

Good morning, I'm a Python developer and a few months ago I started learning Flask to create web pages. Yesterday I started the React course for the platform and I was wondering if anyone experienced knows if you can combine Python (in this case Flask) with React. In which cases would it be useful to use it and in which not?

Answer 1

I am not an expert in software development but in my opinion good software should be efficient and lean. So that would be the opposite.

Answer 2

It is possible. I haven't done it myself because I don't know React, but I'm sure I've seen plenty of articles showing you how to combine the two.

Answer 3

I think that Vue is more flexible option than React for most MVC frameworks. For small projects, it is not worth seperating your application into API, Frontend SPA and Backend MVC.
