React Native Reflect vs React: What are the differences?
Developers describe React Native Reflect as "Responsive, themeable style system for React Native and React Native Web". It makes it easy to create universal React Native applications for Native and Web by providing tools for responsive styles and props, a theme system and other utilities. On the other hand, React is detailed as "A JavaScript library for building user interfaces". Lots of people use React as the V in MVC. Since React makes no assumptions about the rest of your technology stack, it's easy to try it out on a small feature in an existing project.
React Native Reflect and React belong to "Javascript UI Libraries" category of the tech stack.
React is an open source tool with 158K GitHub stars and 31.3K GitHub forks. Here's a link to React's open source repository on GitHub.
