<!-- Update here: /questions/how-does-virtual-dom-in-react-work-what-are-its-benefits-and-downsides/en-US.mdx -->

The virtual DOM in React is a lightweight copy of the actual DOM. When the state of a component changes, React creates a new virtual DOM tree and compares it with the previous one using a process called "reconciliation." Only the differences are then updated in the actual DOM, making updates more efficient. The benefits include improved performance and a more declarative way to manage UI. However, it can add complexity and may not be as performant for very simple applications.
