I'm an intermediate JavaScript developer and I'm looking for good resources to start learning Angular.

While there are many good places to start, I would recommend you start with creating Heroes application on the official doc. Believe me, there is no other detailed explanation for an application. Link(https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/tutorial/ https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/tutorial/) After you have completed that. I would recommend you checking out some open source applications out there. 1. AngularSpree(E-Commerce application) https://github.com/aviabird/angularspree https://github.com/aviabird/angularspree 2. Yatrum(Travel application) https://github.com/aviabird/yatrum https://github.com/aviabird/yatrum 3. Echoes(Music player) https://github.com/orizens/echoes-ng2 https://github.com/orizens/echoes-ng2

  Haha. That was my thought but I didn't want to start a battle of opinions.

    well i wanted to troll. But I'm done with technology from google. I can't change my whole codebase every 6 months. Stability might not be cool, but however. Investing time in angular is just not worth it. there might be success stories with it, however I've didn't seen a major site/framework/whatever that could've used angular 100%. Well I think vmware used angular 2 for their html5 ui, too which I don't know if they also call into other stuff.

  I like Vue, I've starting building some small stuff with it (nothing too complex yet). However, whenever I mention it, I get the same response: "I've heard about it, sounds cool, but we don't use it in our team". I'm trying to learn Angular to get a skill that would open a large market for me.

Aside from the resources already mentioned the articles by thoughtram are very good. They explore a wide range of Angular 2 topics. They admittedly can be a bit verbose at times but they do a great job at explaining relevant concepts to beginners: https://blog.thoughtram.io/categories/angular-2/ https://blog.thoughtram.io/categories/angular-2/ https://blog.thoughtram.io/exploring-angular-2/ https://blog.thoughtram.io/exploring-angular-2/

When someone new starts to work at our team (We use NG2) we give them this screencast to watch. https://www.ng-book.com/2/ https://www.ng-book.com/2/ I think it's pretty good and up-to-date.
