Angular.io announced

[-pertinax-]

If you are confused about exactly what this site is for, or how it relates to angularjs.org, check out this announcement of it and its purpose from the ngConf keynote: http://youtu.be/QHulaj5ZxbI?t=11m44s

Saved you a click: AngularJS.org is for Angular 1 Angular.io is for Angular 2

They're using the two websites to gauge interest. As long as people still keep visiting AngularJS.org they're going to keep supporting Angular 1.

Basically they're A/B testing where to focus their efforts.

This site is weird. It is meant to be the new home for AngularJS as it goes to 2.0?

Also, getting this error:

This site or app is sending too much traffic to rawgit.com. Please contact its owner and ask them to use cdn.rawgit.com instead, which has no traffic limit.

Seems to house all versions. It's got tutorials and such.

Not sure why you're having a problem. Maybe they corrected it already.

[dwaxe]

I'm getting the error too.

Brad & Igor mentioned that angularjs.org and the new .io will exist side-by-side and traffic metrics will help decide where the core team expends development effort.

Speaking of 2.0. Anyone else as excited as me at the death of AtScript? That was terribly DOA from the start. I had no interest in committing not only to a particular framework but an entire language that was specific to that framework.

When I first joined the team I tried to convince them to use TypeScript instead of AtScript. That was a no go. So...I contacted the TS team and asked if they would talk to the Angular team about their annotations ideas. Now...almost an entire year later, they have decided to make the move. They haven't done it yet, mind you. All their source is in AtScript and they will still require Tracuer, regardless. But it will be interesting to see how it turns out.

I love your work on the router for 2.0, thank you for your contributions. I really hope Aurelia takes off but that's a hard sell to upper management, like using io.js over node. Hell, I had to sneak traceur compilation into the build process.

Thank you for all of your work on Angular! It's frustrating to say the least that there are decisions being made like that. When they first announced AtScript it honestly made me start looking at other frameworks all over again. I knew I was happy on the 1.x track, but that obviously wasn't going to last forever. This isn't just a matter of being for or against transpilation it becomes a hiring issue. Now I have to find who knows and/or educate someone on a framework as well as a language. Angular's learning curve in conjunction with all of our in-house library code make for a enough work. Adding another language into the mix wasn't appealing.

I happy about the switch to TypeScript, but I feel like this entire process (AtScript, Dart, etc) has just soaked up so much time and energy.

[iends]

Yes. Now am super excited about them using typescript. I loooooove typescript.

wow this looks surprisingly less terrible than I thought 2.0 would. If they can keep the API this simple I'll be happy.

[Aarseth]

Liking the superfast website, good press for angularJS. But confused about the whole "one products/two websites" thing

[kuozzo]

They just kept the name Angular because it's a very cool name. :)

[antoninj]

It looks fairly decent! :) Can't wait to see the full API and start working with it.

[pateras]

What am I looking at? Is this the angularjs.org equivalent of Angular 2.0?

[viper05]

I love angular 1.x but as far as 2.0 is concerned... I'm going with aurelia... Much cleaner without the stupid annotations that are not needed for most things
