I heard angular is a framework and react is lib. angular 2 or react. Coming from nodejs, python, php, jquery experience which should I learn?

Ignore both. Learn vue.js to get shit done.

That doesn't address the issues the comment just above you (at time of writing) brings up, namely that even with Vue you still need to set up all the tool chain around it, whereas Angular brings a lot of that to the table for you.

I don't have time to learn both. TBH, I am forcing myself to learn cuz... all these examples I could accomplish with jquery...

Angular 2 is great, just look at all the features you get: WebWorker, Server-Side Rendering, mobile, progressive web application, Lazy loading support, Router, Material Components, Precompile your app. Tree-Shaking support, fast rendering, CLI, and TypeScript. The framework is backed by Google and Microsoft

Angular for job opportunities, react for more pleasant and forward looking web development practices.

Interesting coincidence. This week I've been tasked with looking into a JavaScript framework to replace our pure-Clojure stack at work. One of the front-end candidates is Angular. But we're considering cutting it from the race. The three main things we're looking for in a front-end framework: 1. Longevity: we don't want to adopt yet another fad framework that we'll have to replace in 2017. The current trend looks to…

React is great, but it's just a lib. Angular 2 is in release candidate 4, and there are already ton of people using it. If you want a complete solution, I'd use Angular. TypeScript is awesome too. Angular comes with all the stuff you need, http, animations, routing, etc. I wouldn't cut it out just yet, seeing how it's on the horizon.

I handle a big React app at my job. It's messy as fuck with JSX. We made a transition to Vue. Couldn't be happier.

You don't need all that to create SPA app. it's bloated framework.

having the option to precompile your framework to 20kb file size which is smaller than some libraries feels like a great feature
