That's something I could have written a few months ago before discovering Angular.js. Now, I have no reasons and no desire to go back to Ember.

- adamnemecek 14y agoThe main reason why I'm considering giving ember another shot is discourse (discourse.org), which is a pretty large open-source app written in rails and ember. Having a large app that one can reference is pretty invaluable. I'm not aware of any larger apps written in angular.
- 8ig8 14y agoI can't say specifically how any of these compare in size to Discourse, but there are a number of apps listed here: http://builtwith.angularjs.org/ http://builtwith.angularjs.org/
- adamnemecek 14y agoYeah, I'm aware of that site but most of the apps are kind of small.
- wahnfrieden 14y agoGoogle Places and Google DoubleClick use it (larger than discourse will ever be :).
- adamnemecek 14y agoSure, but neither is open source.
- roopeshv 14y agowhat's the metric that would be good enough? if it's size, google places and doubleclick are bigger than discourse. if it's open source, builtwith.angularjs.org lists more open source code than a single app, that is discourse.
- mathrawka 14y agoHe is talking about having a large open source application that you can browse the code to see how things get structured. A simple TODO app and a real-world app are very different, and most TODO apps would turn into spaghetti code. Plus it is nice to see the little tricks that are done to make the code more readable or improve the overall design.
- adamnemecek 14y agoBoth are my metric? Is that not obvious? I'd like to see a large scale production ready application that I can learn from. The open source apps from builtwithangular are pretty useless since they are all just slightly more complex than a todo list.
- benaiah 14y agoA large, open source app. For evaluating how to solve big-app problems, size, on its own, is meaningless, except to show that the hard problems can be done, because it doesn't show how; and open-source, on its own, is meaningless, because it doesn't run into those problems. So adamnemecek needs both to fit his query.
