You realize Angular depends on jQuery right? And that extending Angular with new functionality involves using jQuery... jQuery is not dead, and until DOM apis converge across browser vendors and become 100x easier to use it will remain active.

I'm pretty sure you can use Angular without jQuery and even without using the jQuery-lite thing they have in it. I've moved on from Angular now but I definitely didn't rely on jQuery at all during my end of my Angular days.

  Incorrect: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/src/jqLite.js#L44 https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/src/jqLite... For all intents and purposes, jqLite should be considered equivalent to jQuery for my argument.
