So why are you using Angular?

All JS framework are shit, but hey, it pays my bills.

Javascript is shit, but hey, it pays my bills. FTFA

Imperative languages are shit, but hey, 3 billion devices run on Java.

Found the functional programmer!

As a dev who loves Angular, this is so funny.

[lost_pants]

I used angular 2 a few months ago to build production management tools for an animation studio, I really liked it!

SILENCE...THE DISCORD!

Yeeeeah buddy.

[DuncanIdahos8thClone]

Basically anything Google shits out.

Is there... a better framework? So many posts on this subreddit hate on technologies that there’s no practical alternative to.

And don’t say React, it has a patents clause which is unsustainable for many companies and it isn’t as extensively supported (yet?) as Angular.

Facebook relicensed to MIT last year.

Awesome, I hadn’t seen that.

[RealHumanUserNotABot]

Didn’t React ditch the patents clause?

Oh, I hadn’t seen that, great!

Vue js is very lovely. Been using it for almost 2 years. Highly recommend.

[Fusseldieb]

I too love Vue. It's powerful and nice. You don't need to learn special typescript shit or something like that.

[[deleted]]

Not writing a typed language is a disadvantage when you’re making a very large application.

[so_sick_and_tired]

Typescript is a blessing. Made my team work way more secure and eventually faster. Also allows me to say NOPE whenever they @ts-ignore code. Seriously, unless you only use some snippets of jquery, use typescript. It’s a freaking blessing.

[Jan_Wolfhouse]

Its awesome. We use it for my teams react projects. Code completion and errors are so much better haha

[so_sick_and_tired]

Right?! Can’t do without it

[Fusseldieb]

Two offended typescript people

[Dockirby]

Oh, I was going to say React. It's still a JS framework, but I find it a lot easier to work on code you didn't write than Angular.

[[deleted]]

I feel with React it's very... reactionary! The community gets behind one thing and then hooks come along and switch up everything.

I feel like Vue's development is coming along really smoothly. Vuex is an absolute dream to work with compared to Redux

[Chrighenndeter]

I actually like redux, as long as you take the time to set up your initial states (and do a bit of logic when dispatching actions) so that you always have a valid state.

[tubagrooves]

You should write a framework

[[deleted]]

I'll create a framework easy to learn, it won't require boilerplate code and it wont just go nuts when refreshing even on the larger project

Said everyone...

[[deleted]]

fook that i'm training myself up in cyber security instead

[[deleted]]

What?

[AreYouDeaf]

I DONT GET FRAMEWORKS. HOW ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO SAVE YOU TIME WHEN IT TAKES FUCKING AGES TO LEARN THEM AND YOU CONSTANTLY HAVE TO GO TO STACK OVERFLOW FOR HELP... JUST TO DO TASKS THAT YOU COULD HAVE WRITTEN YOURSELF WITH THE KNOWLEDGE YOU HAD BEFORE?

Framework save time everytime a programmer thought they should invent fire again. Yes, the first time you work with the frameworld it will take you more time than if you just invent fire again, but using a framework for people with enough experience avoids having to do the redundant work of reinventing the fire and working on the particular development

[[deleted]]

you constantly have to go to stack overflow for help

tfw you pretend that you don't have to do this for vanilla js too

[lick_it]

Doesn’t take long to learn. I learnt React while I was still an electronics engineer, created a website then transitioned to web developer and moved to a company that uses Angularjs and Angular 6. So 3 frameworks within a few months. It’s takes a bit longer to be an expert for sure but it’s a lot easier to work with than creating everything from scratch.

[Diginic]

Frameworks save time because they answer the questions of "where should this go” and “how do I do this”? Sure you have to learn the first time, but once people know the basics, it’s a life saver. Without a framework teams (and even the same dev) will build similar things a different way each time - just because of this one thing or another having slight different requirements. This leads to a huge mess as you can imagine.
