systemjs VS aleph.js

I would like to upgrade my existing Rails and Angular 1.x application. I'm following the ng-upgrade documentation and seeing that there are many dependencies including systemjs, typescript, tsd and a few other javascript libraries. Ideally there would be a angular-2 gem that would have all the dependencies but I'm not able to find that. Next I looked for gem's for each dependency but there isn't one for tsd.

There's also https://github.com/systemjs/systemjs if you want more of a ponyfill approach. FWIW bundlers also don't use the browser's functionality to load modules...

A module loader interprets and loads a module written in a certain module format at runtime. Popular examples are RequireJS and SystemJS.

Check aleph if you want to use react with deno. But I'd suggest sticking with Node.js and Vite as you'll get less surprises.

Here's another thing: if you want to grow from this exact setup, use deno. It has support for import maps and don't require a bundler or a separate compilation step for typescript

Maybe add aleph too (which is similar to nextjs)

https://alephjs.org/

Deno won't require nearly as much tooling as nodejs, but it still has tooling for the cases you need it.

There’s also https://alephjs.org, never used but pops up when you search for "deno react" so I assume is similar to nextjs.

Aleph.js is a full-stack framework in Deno, used as an alternative to Next.js. Aleph.js offers features like ES module imports, file-system routing, SSR & SSG, and HMR with a fast refresh.
