Sequel or Reboot?

What do people consider this film to be? Do we consider it a sequel to the Amazing Spiderman 2 that was released in 2014 or is it a new reboot (that means a new start from the franchise). In my opinion it makes sense to consider it a sequel since this film comes only 3 years later than TASM2. Thoughts?

Side-quel to Civil War.

It's a reboot.
Peter is 15 and still in high school in this movie. In ASM2 Peter was 18/19 and just graduating high school. So there is just no way it can be a sequel to ASM2.
