I tried react initially. As a Java developer, I needed types, rxjs, modules without the Hassel of webpack configs. Angular provides consistent structure to your app. With angular-cli, consistent interface to front-end development. Having ported it from Ember, IMO the cli interface should be standard across all front-end frameworks. I see it as microkernel like framework for front-end development. In Java land, we have OSGi standard for modular software component development, angular has sort-of similar design. The only confusing part is NgModule, the team should rename angular modules as NgBundle - which consists of native TS modules. I read somewhere, angular team is working on material widget library, please make style-less components with theming support.
