Npm or direct link

Question

Hello everyone,
I am learning react and i have a question that when we use bootstrap, font awesome etc in react project we can use npm install or we can use link in head tag.
Both works same.

My question is that which one is better for react project and what's the difference between both.

Answer 1

Well, the version with CDN link is just to test thingswithout the need to install dependencies and setup a project. If you are developing an app, you should install the libs.

Answer 2

You made it clear for me. Thanks for answering.
