You can use Redux with Angular 2, and it works quite well! The dev tools work the way you'd expect them to. Webpack hot module loading works well Angular 2 as well. I agree that JSX is easier to debug. The Augury[1] Chrome extension serves the same purpose for Angular 2 as the React Dev Tools extension does for React. That's not to say that React isn't great too! I like it lot. [1] https://augury.angular.io/ https://augury.angular.io/

How does it do with synching your route state with the redux store? I remember when I played with it (think routing has been replaced twice since) that was the real beast, though redux was a pretty nice fit other than that.

  That's a good question; I didn't try it. On the bright side, if you don't mind diving one layer below the surface, the code for react-router-redux is short, well written, and easy to understand: https://github.com/reactjs/react-router-redux https://github.com/reactjs/react-router-redux Even if the equivalent already exists for the current iteration, you could probably write your own in an afternoon without rushing yourself too much.

    That's kind of what I did... It was not in a modular fashion though as a lot of it was trying to discover how the lifecycle worked in Angular 2... basically, I wanted to be able to trigger an effective redirect from angular or via redux action or via a route/hash change, and have the redux always reflect the current route... there were some bits with how the change detection works in ng2 that I had to tap into, apparently this is one of the bits that changed since I last used it though. If I have to use ng2 again will take the time... aside, I really wish they'd renamed it to Angular 3 (3.0) for release, given the massive changes to "Angular 2" over its' lifetime and the number of broken blog articles and tutorials...
