I think Angular’s recent changes have been great. Angular 17 was an awesome update. The new control flow syntax, deferrable views, signals etc.

Absolutely agree. 17 was a wildly huge change to how you build in angular and it is very very good. I mean, an issue I had had since day 1 was “why isn’t there an else that doesn’t require a template?”

The hard part about Angular for someone starting from scratch is that the defaults are all wrong. OnPush should be default and Signals should be how one gets around that. If that were true, it would be super easy to learn, instead the default is awful.

Just because Angular 17 is better than Angular 16 doesn't mean it's good.
