It's a view generation library, not a DOM-diffing library. That's like asking how to rotate a subtree in an RB tree library.

> view generation library

If it were simply a view generation library you could use a dom-diffing library to diff it. But React does full lifecycle management in addition to "generation".

The fact that you can't use React along with other libraries in the same space means its a framework.
