> Angular 2 is currently in Alpha Preview. We recommend using Angular 1.X for production applications. Not sure how they can "recommend" 1.X when it's completely incompatible with 2.0. Might as well recommend Ember, React, or literally anything else.

Why would they recommend something other than angular on the angular homepage?

The milk of human kindness.

Because 1.X is production ready and 2.0 isn't? 1.X will still be maintained.

Angular is the new PHP... Queue the haters

Piggy-backing off of this, here's my short list of if-js-framework-were-languages:

angular = php : obtuse and a little nonsensical at times, yet by far the most popular tool out there in industry.

ember = ruby : highly decorative and alluring, and it's even built by refugees of rails

react = haskell : esoteric, functional, and strange enough to come with its own dialect of js; it's literally the framework built for framework developers (to learn from)

backbone = C++ : fast because it has so little and therefore so little to slow it down

jquery = C : at some level, everything else seems to be built on this

meteor = computer language when portrayed on a Hollywood movie : you know, like in the first Wolverine Xmen movie, whatever language that they used to program Ryan Reynolds with that allows the user to just type in something like "Kill him" into the terminal and Ryan Reynolds then attempts to kill wolverine (sorry spoilers). I don't know if there are any commands other than "kill him", but it handles the "kill him" command with incredible automagic.

their about page is broken, cutting off text of the bio at almost all screen sizes. there is a weird "rawgit traffic error" banner across the site.

The hero is blank on Firefox due to -webkit-linear-gradient. It makes all hero text invisible to the user.

White text on white background image ? Look how this renders on 1920x1080 resolution http://i.imgur.com/sPWpL6C.png . I cannot read that text, I don't understand anything from it.

There's supposed to be a blue background overlaying that.

The white text is practically invisible on any resolution.

Someone made a small mistake with linear-gradient. They have linear-gradient(top, #0143A3, #0273D4) instead of linear-gradient(to bottom, #0143A3, #0273D4).
