Why Use the Lightning Component Framework?

There are many benefits of using the Lightning Component framework to build apps.

Out-of-the-Box Component Set: Comes with an out-of-the-box set of components to kick start building apps. You don't have to spend your time optimizing your apps for different devices as the components take care of that for you.
Performance: Uses a stateful client and stateless server architecture that relies on JavaScript on the client side to manage UI component metadata and application data. The framework uses JSON to exchange data between the server and the client. To maximize efficiency, the server only sends data that is needed by the user.; Intelligently utilizes your server, browser, devices, and network so you can focus on the logic and interactions of your apps.
Event-driven architecture: Uses an event-driven architecture for better decoupling between components. Any component can subscribe to an application event, or to a component event they can see.
Faster development: Empowers teams to work faster with out-of-the-box components that function seamlessly with desktop and mobile devices. Building an app with components facilitates parallel design, improving overall development efficiency.; Components are encapsulated and their internals stay private, while their public shape is visible to consumers of the component. This strong separation gives component authors freedom to change the internal implementation details and insulates component consumers from those changes.
Device-aware and cross browser compatibility: Apps are responsive and provide an enjoyable user experience. The Lightning Component framework supports the latest in browser technology such as HTML5, CSS3, and touch events.
