Why use Vanilla.js over React.js?

The question is about Vanilla.js

Answer:

Using Vanilla.js over React.js can be advantageous for simpler projects where the complexity and features of React.js are unnecessary. Vanilla.js is not dependent on anything, and it allows a very lightweight and fast setup. It should be ideal for projects with pretty simple functionality or interactivity.
Vanilla.js allows the developer to write pure JavaScript with no overhead of a framework, smaller file sizes and faster loading times. This will allow one to deepen their understanding of JavaScript fundamentals, DOM manipulation, and browser behavior. It might turn out that Vanilla is more effective in small performance-sensitive projects than React.js.
