Angular v22(blog.angular.dev) |
I wish Angular dropped their weird compiler that's tight coupled to tsc and moved into more pluggable approach so you can use it with whatever TS compiler. App and unit test cold build times are still crap, but at least with a coding agent you care about this less.
Or has sanity reached the Angular ecosystem by now?
For the rest, RxJS is cool where you actually need it and want it.
import {signal} from "@angular/core"
import {form} from "@angular/forms/signals"
So, signal comes out of core and form comes out of forms/signals. This must be a terminology thing I don't get.Other than that. Looking forward to try Angular again after a decade of absence. I think it looks pretty good.
I'm not on the Angular development team or anything, though I do use Angular at $DAY_JOB and I'm overall perfectly fine with the framework and its tooling. However, the grass might be greener elsewhere; I'm just not familiar with it!
Has anyone done a modern Angular vs. React comparison that's not an AI slop article?
I'm also curious if it's "simple made easy" for performant applications. React is arguably "simple made hard", but there are notable, highly performant applications written with it (Linear comes to mind).
I would still rather use something else (instead or React or Angular) but 1) most jobs in my area are asking for one of those, and 2) I'm actually starting to lean towards Angular even for personal projects.
Angular is great these days, and they're making really nice improvements.
I would be more happy if it would be just one of those..
