  • Angular is a terrible choice and I work for the dang company that maintains it. The module system is overly complex. DI is an entirely runtime system, which seems like a really odd choice for a framework that leans so heavily on the compile-time safety of Typescript. I have witnessed this often leading to unexpected runtime NullInjectorErrors. Directives are a total mess and offer little advantage over custom components (I have seen directives abused far more than used cleverly). It's 2023 and Angular admittedly still cannot do HMR reasonably. Rxjs has an API the size of the sun and is very hard to learn for my juniors. Due to its closed ecosystem, Angular has had trouble keeping up with modern frontend trends like using faster build systems (Vite / esbuild support is experimental at best) and moving away from large, centralized stores. The framework is bloated and a mess and I can't wait for it to be gone.
