The whole "I hate angular" is a bit old at this point. The latest versions are really quite simple/powerful. We act like it's still 2015 and we're jumping from angularjs 1.x to React. The jump was nice, yet turns out production-grade engineering in React was not so nice.
- fuzzy2 5y agoI don’t like the separation between template and code, I don’t like the developer experience (slow and often malfunctioning VS Code extensions and slow builds, bad in-browser debug helpers), I don’t like how creating “ad-hoc” components is basically impossible. I think Zone.js is insane. I know Angular very well. That’s why I’m confident I can create high-performance applications using Angular. I firmly believe Angular has far too many pitfalls for inexperienced developers. So yeah, I hate Angular.

- mst 5y agoIf you can't hate on your major dependencies confidently and at length, you probably haven't used them long enough yet. I generally spend much of my day writing perl. It absolutely works for me, but every time I encounter somebody who wants to -attack- perl I find myself disappointed by how short their list of reasons to hate it is compared to my own. (one of the most complicated JS codebases I work with on a regular basis is in angular, and the learning curve is a fucking cliff but yeah, once you get to the top, I agree with everything you've said about it)
