When React is the right call

Pick React when

  • The interface updates all day and users keep it open
  • Your web team already writes React and you want a React Native app next
  • You need custom charts, maps or status views

Look elsewhere when

  • A mostly static marketing site
  • Your team has deep Angular experience and a large Angular codebase
  • A form with two fields

Related: Angular, React Native, Node.js, and the logistics and construction sectors.

FAQs

What buyers ask first

Should a new project start with Create React App?

No. The React team deprecated Create React App for new apps on 14 February 2025 and points to a framework or a build tool such as Vite, Parcel or RSBuild. Our TruckFleet console is built on Vite.

Do you use a charting library?

On TruckFleet we drew the charts and maps as SVG in-house, with CSS handling the transitions. Where a library fits the job better, we say so on the first call.

What is the React Compiler?

A build-time tool that reached stable version 1.0 in October 2025. We check whether your app benefits before switching it on.

Who owns the code and the cloud accounts?

You do, from the first commit. Repositories and cloud accounts stay in your name.
