Here's why I like angular...

It only took me a couple days of fooling around with it before I built something useful with it. The steep learning curve is only if you want to know the how-and-why behind every feature of the framework (which I still am not even close to). Learning 100% of the framework is simply not necessary for certain apps.

It's easy in my opinion, it's quick, and it gets the job done. If I run into any problems, there about a bazillion stack overflow post addressing my issue already.



This is absolutely true. When you start out, and have gotten the hang of the main concepts, it's easy, beautiful and a joy to work with.

But eventually you will run into more complex use cases, and the beautiful abstractions of Angular will fall apart. And the problems I run into often only have unanswered questions on Stackoverflow.


Here's why I dislike angular: I was in the same place as you, then I hit something outside the intended use cases and now it's all a huge pain.


you sound practical...gasp!!! ;)


Think so? To me it sounds like the sort of person who leaves messes to get cleaned up by others. No need to learn the tools you're using, just shove shit out the door and let someone else worry about it!
