AngularJS

This is my third startup and I feel really good about the potential success of our managed marketplace in the outdoor recreation industry. Four founders, and we gave what seemed a trustworthy team in India $15k to build a fairly complex 6 page website that includes customer login and data queries.

However, I am just realizing that it was done with AngularJS. I am not the technical cofounder, and had someone else look at the site who brought this to my attention.

Apparently AngularJS is going end of life at the end of this year. Does anyone have an idea if I should change to React or Angular? Should we do it now or later?

We are launching the MVP in three weeks when the site is basic site done as they are finishing up design features, responsiveness, and bug fixes right now. We have three more releases already mapped out if we get traction, all told we are prepared to put in another $60k-$100k into the site over the next year (more if things go well).

Hi all!

I have only experience in Angular 13 and would like to know more about how modern Angular compares to AngularJS and how you would upgrade form AngularJS to Angular. I guess with a microfrontend approach + Angular Elements to gradually make the shift, or do you have other opinions/experiences on that topic?

Would also be interesting to see how specific features have become different.

"In Grafana 11, which will be released in preview in April and generally available in May, support for AngularJS will be turned off by default for all on-premise and cloud instances of Grafana. This will prevent any plugin that relies on AngularJS from being loaded and has the potential to significantly disrupt your dashboard experience.

In this blog post, I will explain what is happening, how to tell if you will be impacted, and provide guidance on how to migrate to supported data sources and visualization panels. Read on to ensure a smooth experience with Grafana 11."

We've been talking about this since Grafana v9, but sharing to make sure everyone's aware.

I asked my friend who it's doing good in freelancing, what should I use for front-end to get into freelancing. Then he told me to learn AngularJS.

Now, I'm quite well practiced with ReactJS for one year. And for sure it will be difficult to learn AngularJS now. I want to know is it worth it to learn AngularJS, now that ReactJS is so heavily used everywhere?

Hi all, I (and my small team) have a medium(ish) sized (~50 page) web app that's still sporting an AngularJS (1.x) driven front-end with a Web API (.net 6) backend. This is a somewhat boring enterprise app that's mainly working with forms / grids, etc.. nothing flashy. Anyway, I'm trying to come up with a strategy around replacing the defunct AngularJS pages with something else and I'm strongly considering slowly rewriting it into Razor pages.

I'm not super experienced with MPA design overall as most of my career thus far has been based around building SPAs (Angular / AngularJS) with JSON back-ends, so I'm a little nervous taking the plunge in this direction as it's a bit of an unknown. Despite all that, I've been inspired by the HTMX & Alpine libraries which I believe solve my biggest concerns which are #1) avoiding a 1999 user experience of constant page reloads #2) digging a JS spaghetti code grave attempting to solve issue #1.

Converting AngularJS to ASP Razor - Good idea, or am I overlooking something? What are your thoughts on developer productivity using Razor / MVC versus the big JS UI frameworks?

Thanks!

Hi!

So, I hear (and read) everywhere that AngularJS was a revolutionary framework when it first showed up, but hardly anyone explains why. If anyone could spare me some time to explain or link some sources that delve into it, that would be great :)

Just started learning about AngularJS and saw that AngularJS 2 is on the way. Should I start learning Should I start using AngularJS or should I got straight to AngularJS 2?

Thanks

I was really hoping to use AngularJS for a couple of upcoming projects, but the prospect of having to learn and deal with a new JavaScript-but not-actually-JavaScript language is extremely unappealing. Obviously it's important to move the web forward, but I don't really think this is a good route to go down.

So, what are the good alternatives? Does anyone have any experience with the other big frameworks? Is everything else as all-encompassing as AngularJS? I'm totally fine with a discussion or being convinced otherwise!
