I remember Angular 4 being a thing, so they skipped 3 and 5?

Re: AWS Amplify now supports Angular 6 apps and Angular AOT compilation
#14Yeah, so a trip to wikipedia can answer pretty much all the comments here. AngularJS 1.7.1 was released June 8 2018 (3 days ago), and active development is set to end June 30, with 1.7.x supported as LTS through until June 30 2021. [1] Angular 2 - 6 is on a much shorter release cycle, with Angular 7 scheduled to release in Sept or Oct 2018. There have been steady improvements, but nothing as radical as AngularJS 1.x…
I work in 1.x in my day to day and agree with you - I wouldn't recommend starting new projects with 1.x as it's starting to feel its age now. Performance is a major concern unless you are savvy with how you write your code.
I really like what Vue is doing as sort of an intermediate between Angular 1.x and the new world of frontend

#15Appearently so. Imho, 1.x is still the best.
1000% this. For a consulting shop, Angular 1.x specialty was, is, and will be hot for many years to come. From a developer stand point, there is really no need to look elsewhere other than hype.
This isn’t good advise. Angular 1.X is discontinued and uses confusing patterns not used in Angular 2 , React, Preact, Vue etc. specializing in it is a very bad career move.

It is a great specialty. Sure doesn't hurt to pick up others along the way, but having deep Angular 1.x specialty 5 years from now will have you flooded with maintenance, upgrade and conversion gigs, and big ones.
