Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Cloudflare and React?

Cloudflare is a content delivery network (CDN) (CDN, DDoS protection, and security services), while React is a web framework (JavaScript library for building user interfaces). They sit in different categories (CDN and Framework), so they can also be used together.

Can a website use both Cloudflare and React?

Yes. Tech Stack Detector detects each technology independently when you scan a site, so a single page can report both Cloudflare and React when both are present.
