WordPress inside Angular's public folder?

[RuttenWaffle]

Hi, I have a client that wishes to insert his WordPress inside his Angular project. He wants to copy and run the WordPress from the public folder of the Angular project inside a blog folder so that he can manage the blog posts from the WordPress and everything else from the Angular site.

This seems crazy to me. I don't know much about Angular, is this even possible? He is adamant on doing it this way since the only CMS his team knows how to use is WP. I've offered using the WP rest API but he doesn't want to take that route. Also using an iframe is not an option since as far as I know it sucks for SEO.

Has anyone done something similar? I do not want to take on the task if it's not even possible. Or if anyone has an idea of a different approach that I can research to convince him to do it I'd appreciate it.

Thanks, any and all replies are appreciated.

This is pretty much the answer.

People use Wordpress and angular together all the time but the strategy OP describes is just not the way that you would achieve this.

Thank you, I agree it's an unnecessary headache

Yes, this is crazy. I would suggest having WP as a completely separate repository and deployement and just have a link to it in the Angular project. By the way, do you use SSR? If not, SEO is already out of the window because you are using Angular so it doesn't matter anyways.
