React JS is among the top-most three Java Script libraries used by the professional developers. Some of the important benefits of React JS are as follows for building user interfaces:

  • It’s open-source, lightweight and SEO-friendly.
  • It’s suitable for scalable and high-performance apps because of the presence of virtual DOM,
  • Not so steep learning curve.
  • Writing custom components is a mostly painless process as the system components are highly reusable.
  • React components are updated efficiently.
  • The React JS developer community is active.

All these facts make React JS library one of the best for building high-quality graphical user interfaces.

Force-directed Graph

Charting tools are useful when created independently but these become awesome if connected to the aggregated data. Therefore, it is incredible if charts and pivot tables are combined together in a form of a dashboard.

Following are the tools which can help to create reports directly in the React JS project: -

There is a variety of available data sources like CSV, JSON, OLAP cubes, SQL/NoSQLdata, and Elasticsearch.

We recommend these solutions for showcasing the business data in the form of recurring or one-off reports. Also, it’s a great idea to visualize the data with the embedded charts or integrate a pivot table with the third-party charting libraries.
