Angular team member here. We're working on simplifying the Angular learning journey. Generally, lots of the examples out there use very expressive APIs coming from RxJS. They could be very powerful, but at the same time may look convoluted to folks unfamiliar with the semantics. I can recommend you checking out https://angular.io/start https://angular.io/start. We did a few iterations on the materials and tried to introduce the concepts from the framework gradually. Something you could notice is that Angular encourages the best practices from the beginning, such as TypeScript, testability, etc. Based on my observations, this may make the learning journey a little steeper at first, but starting with (and learning) good practices is always worth it.
