- Native browser API
LWC uses web standards which makes it better performant as it uses web stack features implemented in native browsers, unlike Aura framework, which needed a proprietary component model, proprietary language extensions, and proprietary modules. - Supports Modern JavaScript
LWC uses modern JavaScript; since 2015, JavaScript underwent significant changes, which have made things easier for developers. In addition, LWC uses ECMAScript 6 and above, giving the developers an upper hand to lots of features that make their life easy, such as modules, classes, template literals, arrow functions, and much more. - Time-Saving
With LWC, very few code lines are required compared to Aura, which saves a lot of critical time and empowers developers to maximize productivity and minimize the complexities involved in building use-cases. - Portability
As LWC is open source and uses web standards, you can easily use it in a non-Salesforce runtime environment, i.e., you write your code on a platform and use it elsewhere. - Easy to ramp
Unlike Aura, Components LWC has no additional framework; this makes the transitions a lot easier.
