Did a big project with Angular 1.0 and after it clicked it was alright. I really enjoyed it, everything made sense. I thought Angular would be my best friend.
Tried Angular 2.0 and it's a completely different beast it seems. A simple project cookie cutter has 6 different files, it is ridiculous.
I had to edit the /etc/sysctl.conf just to go through the tutorial using Papa John's configuration and fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 524288 else it would crash.
All this transpiling and whatnot just to get a javascript app to run is way too much. 6 files of boilerplate is just nonsense.
Lost all interest in Angular 2.x.
going to either stick with angular 1.x or try react/vue, which is a shame.
- johnwheeler 10y agoUsing webpack shoots the boilerplate up to 16 files https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/guide/webpack.html https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/guide/webpack.html The production build weighs in at a meg, for a simple hello world.
- talmand 10y agoI said that once about the hello world tutorial (which had a larger footprint than you stated) and was deluged with "did you set it to production?" comments. It was clear I was referring to the tutorial and the immediate defensiveness really told me a lot about it all.
