What is the difference between data binding and manual binding?

What is the difference between data binding and manual binding?

Data binding automatically synchronizes data between the model and the view, while manual binding requires explicit updates.

Can you give me an example of each?

Sure! In data binding, changes in the model reflect in the UI automatically. In manual binding, you have to write code to update the UI after changing the model.

Which one is better for performance?

Data binding can be more efficient as it reduces boilerplate code, but manual binding can be faster in specific scenarios where you control updates.

Are there any frameworks that prefer one over the other?

Yes, frameworks like Angular and React favor data binding, while others like jQuery often use manual binding.
