I’m happy to see improvements in Angular (since I’m forced to work with it).
I still don’t like it though. Too much frameworky stuff. Too much magic. Too much stuff which is impossible to debug when things go wrong.
Fucking zones and overarchitecting everything with rxjs where it’s not needed and just adding complexity and errors not catchable by the Typescript type system, giving runtime-errors for what is compilation-errors in any other TS front-end framework.
Compile-time mangling your standard ES-promises and shoving them into ZoneAwarePromises which are not handled by the normal JS runtime’s event-loop, but instead tossed into Angulars own micro queue system, all written in incomprehensible, minified JS.
Oh and the terrible stack-traces and impossibility to debug anything once the framework decides to do things you never asked it (and it will!)
Man I really don’t like angular, but at least now it seems I can build it faster.
Sad to say, but for all the work put into this, I’d rather see this project die.
