This used to be true but isn’t anymore. For a while they pushed Angular, nowadays I think a lot of teams are using react. GWT is long deprecated and gone.

- kaba0 4y agoTo be fair, gmail was quite great at the time of GWT. Not sure how much use their Clojure “platform” still get, but I think it was very ahead in terms of maintainability of large js code bases (or even ahead as we have it now)
- mattlondon 4y agoI think citation needed on that one. From what I understand (no special insider information) React is essentially non-existent inside of Google, and NPM is not even available to engineers (be default)
- t8sr 4y agoI am not sure how much I can say, because I used to work there. But I think it's OK to say many Google engineers don't particularly like Angular.
- panopticon 4y agoIt depends what org you're in. Cloud seems to use a lot of Angular, but the rest of the company is coalescing around an in-house framework called Wiz (you can poke around the open sourced jsaction library to get an idea of the design philosophy).
