Frontend Web Framework

A named framework whose primary job is building the part of a web application that runs in, or renders for, the browser: the user interface and its client-side behavior. Belongs here: Angular, Backbone.js, Blazor, Ember.js, jQuery, React, Svelte, Vaadin and Vue.js, each defined by the interfaces and components it builds rather than by the server logic behind them. Does not belong here: a framework whose defined job is server-side request handling and business logic, filed under Backend Web Framework, and a framework that packages both halves as one product, filed under Full-Stack Web Framework.
