Yes. I/we are using AngularJS to update some applications (apps, NOT sites) that manage state forms from initiation within private organizations with a workflow through the counties up to the state. There is quite a bit of interactive validation and input formatting / lookup support in a small number of very long forms, so it helps to have most of the interaction on the client side. Also on the plus side, the back end requires less code now. IMHO, where Java is concerned, less of it is better. (There is still WAAAAAAAY too much of it, compared to equivalent Rails code) Javascript might not be quite as good of a “Simula 67” as Java is, but it’s a much better Smalltalk or Scheme than Java is :-). (A comparison which probably doesn’t hold for JS vs Ruby)
