Frontend Interview Questions and Answers

1. What are the key features of React?


React provides features like Virtual DOM, JSX, Components, Unidirectional Data Flow, Hooks, and
Performance Optimization.

2. What is JSX in React?


JSX is a syntax extension for JavaScript that allows writing HTML-like code within React
components. It simplifies UI development.

3. What is the difference between functional and class components in React?


Functional components are simpler and use hooks for state management, while class components
use lifecycle methods and `this.state`.

4. What are React hooks?


Hooks like useState, useEffect, and useContext allow functional components to manage state and
lifecycle events without using classes.

5. What is the purpose of Redux in React applications?


Redux is a state management library that centralizes application state, making it predictable and
easier to debug and test.

6. How does React handle component re-rendering?


React uses a Virtual DOM to efficiently update only the changed parts of the UI instead of
re-rendering the entire component tree.

7. What is the significance of keys in React lists?


Keys help React identify which items have changed, are added, or removed, improving rendering
performance and avoiding UI bugs.

8. What is the difference between REST APIs and GraphQL?


REST APIs expose fixed endpoints, while GraphQL allows clients to request specific data structures
with a flexible query language.

9. How does React handle API calls?


React uses the fetch API or Axios inside useEffect to handle API calls asynchronously and update
the component state accordingly.

10. What are microservices and how do they relate to frontend development?
Microservices are independent services that work together to form a system. Frontend apps
consume microservices via APIs.

11. How does CI/CD benefit frontend development?


CI/CD automates testing, integration, and deployment, reducing manual effort, improving code
quality, and speeding up releases.

12. What is the role of Git in frontend development?


Git is a version control system that helps developers track changes, collaborate efficiently, and
manage different code versions.

13. What are best practices for writing clean and maintainable React code?
Use reusable components, follow modular architecture, implement PropTypes or TypeScript, and
maintain consistent code styling.

14. What are the different ways to style React components?


You can use CSS, SCSS, Styled Components, CSS Modules, or inline styles to style React
components.

15. What are the advantages of using TypeScript with React?


TypeScript provides static typing, better code organization, enhanced debugging, and improved
developer experience in React projects.
