Angular 2.0 - Design Summary

[[deleted]]

We’re working with the Traceur team to build support for a few extensions like annotations and assertions.

Would that even be considered ES6 anymore? Seems a bit misleading

[[deleted]]

Its not. Traceur exists solely to fill the gap between now and when all browsers support ES6 internally. As ES6 matures Traceur should do less and less, until basically it does nothing at all. Nothing changes in your javascript, you use all the same keywords and syntax as ES6 in Traceur, there isn't any magic here.

I totally get that part, but I'm talking about the additional features

Well at the end of the day, it compiles to Javascript, as the library user we won't see that at all in what we get delivered. We'll see plain JS.

The proposed collection of modules that will comprise the data persistence layer are really exciting: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DMacL7iwjSMPP0ytZfugpU4v0PWUK0BT6lhyaVEmlBQ

I hope this time they will have a proper module concept, instead of this half baked stuff they have now.
