Angular is an option from a high level but I would argue against it on merit.

Vue is off the table. If you’re not prioritizing “ability to hire” with your tech choices you’re in for a bad time. Angular is popular enough that you would get a lot of candidates.



Why is Vue off the table?

Where I work uses Vue rather than React, and we're _very_ happy with that choice. There's many reasons why (specifically the Composition API is similar to React Hooks, but in my opinion _much_ better thought out, and so is the fact that the state-management story is much more opinionated/first-party), but rather than start a framework war, I will say that every FE engineer we've hired who preciously worked at a React shop (which is all of them) has gotten the hang of Vue within a week and finds Vue a refreshing breath of fresh air. Me included.

I think React without a doubt has the largest ecosystem. And I also think Vue is more than a valid choice, and definitely not a problem in the hiring sphere.


Ability to hire. There are fewer vue developers and people tend to apply for jobs in tooling they already know.
