I've used Angular and Durandal and I've found Durandal to be much easier to work with. Recently I've thought about which framework I would choose for a future project and it wasn't easy to pick between these two given Durandal's uncertain future as part of Angular, and Angular's apparent scorched earth version changes.
This news makes me very happy.
- orand 12y agoInteresting. One of the commenters on the parent article has come to the opposite conclusion after starting with Durandal and switching to Angular: "I've invested a lot in Durandal: my own startup, as well as the new tooling for RavenDB. I was planning on migrating all these projects to Angular 2.0. And after your leaving Durandal and thinking it would go stale, I started building new projects in Angular 1.x. "Now that I've used both Durandal and Angular, it's clear to me Angular 1.x is a better framework: the NG binding system is better than KO's, I don't have to worry about observables anymore, the dependency injection, to name a few."
- judah 12y agoThat was me. Yes, Angular 1.x is clearly superior to Durandal 2.x. That said, I'm happy with the news that Durandal will see a vNext. I believe Rob will make it into what Angular 2.0 should have been.
