- qaq 10y agoYou can use Redux with almost anything including Angular 2. The purely functional manner is only an option if you Ok with providing subpar user experience (need to provide quality cross component animated transition that no side effects functional thing goes out of the window really fast). Given modern tooling the testing point is also a bit overstated.
- mateuszf 10y agoWhat exactly do you mean? What is better then having a reliable, easy to write unit tests which cover most of the logic and run very fast?
- crucialfelix 10y agoI've used flux and redux in angular for years. You can write purely functional directives. Angular is much more than just a view library. I've built quite a bit in both react and angular.
- jbergens 10y agoThat's nice but then you don't have the "angular is the standard and I don't have to choose anything" advantage anymore.
- crucialfelix 10y agoBut my code is more flexible, less dependent on the framework it's deployed in. So I can more easily survive things like "migrate to ng2"
