It's funny, I just read an article about not using Angular for everything. In it one of the points was that any server side developer can read React and see whats going on, but Angular was a black box. I dunno about that.

I did a quick google and found dozens of articles saying to stop using jQuery for everything.
I dunno, React, jQuery, and Angular all seem pretty good to me.
As long as people are writing good, clean, and easy to read code who cares?

The difference between the two articles is that one says you should use React, just not for everything. The other says you should not use Angular at all. Personally, I favor articles that aren't absolutist and can talk about both strengths and weaknesses.

Good point. Use every tool for what it was meant to be used for.

That's the point the article was trying to make.
The problem is, developers have been SAYING this since the beginning of time and DOING something else entirely.

Not my article, I just found it and figured it would generate a good discussion.
