Thats a little hyperbole. I "support" it in that its an easy way for someone to make a typical web application without having to know the details of call vs apply, arguments, prototypes, etc, or writing a lot of boilerplate. So in that way I guess angular is for people who don't want to learn "javascript" - and thats what you see it being used for generally anyways.
- snarfy 12y agoAnd how do those developers deal with issues such as XSS, injection, untrusted JSON, etc if they don't know JavaScript? I agree with the OP. At some point it will come back to bite you. I've watched many ASP and ASP.NET developers struggle with more modern web methodologies such as restful web apis, client side MVC, etc and it's because they never took the time to understand the web, the browser, or javascript and let ASP take care of it for them since everything is server side and postbacks. I fear it will be the same mistake again but made with frameworks such as angular where we have a generation of developers who have no idea how the underlying technology works.

At some point it will come back to bite you. Well thats the thing, they don't because thats what the senior devs are for, and learning that stuff is part of becoming a senior dev. I just don't see angular making any more developers who don't really know the core of their technology than any other "generation"... I bet the exact same things were said about jQuery 8 years ago.
