Lets see what happens to react. I hear React is building in support for Relay, React Native, other facebook stuff. I Edit; Sorry i meant Conway's Law https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_law
Isn't Godwin's law that any online discussion will eventually lead to someone comparing something or someone to Nazi Germany if given enough time?
I've been loving using React. Building in components is fantastic, and it just feels like writing Javascript. That's a win in my books.
Angular size really impressive: angular2.min.js - 568K Version 1.4.* angular.min.js - 148K File size really increased (Angular1 * 4 == Angular2), if compared with first version. Something went wrong.
Unless it has been cached (from visiting other sites), this is terrible first time user experience for those with slow connection.

I've been using TypeScript for a few months now and have been so impressed with it that I am beginning to favor Angular 2 over React just because of Angular 2's TS integration. TypeScript basically made JavaScript more powerful and a whole lot more fun for me. I feel so much better about slinging around parameters now that I know my IDE will catch type/parameter mismatches before I run the code, before I build it, ev…
Welcome to the programming world, js developers.
Despite all its glaring flaws, javascript is an insanely productive language due to excellent mix of features. To improve upon that Id need to go to lisp / clojure [ but it lacks wide commercial acceptance .. not a criticism at all ]
I'm actually wary of using the newer additions to javascript language - ES6, Promises and arrow notation don't seem that much of a win to me, I'm very sceptical of new being good in language design...
whereas I really love Ramda.js as a general underscore / lodash replacement.
Productivity seems more a function of how we structure our code [ eg. keep state so we can jump back into where we were in the web app, thus iterate easily - as per the Om approach ] and thinking functionally.. rather than language syntax additions.
I don't see the need for an IDE .. they tend to come into their own when Your.ColourfulAndCompleteMethodNames are so long they need auto-completion. Thats the beauty of javascript [ and lisp etc ] we should fight to keep things small and terse.
Uh did Angular not get the memo that people hate the new syntax and typescript? This is how you turn the most popular javascript MVC framework to nothing.
From what I've seen, there are a lot of vocal proponents of Typescript, but not many vocal detractors. Which of those is the actual majority is hard to day. I have a theory that many of the people who like Typescript came from a statically-typed background (Java, C#, etc) and don't like the loosely-typed world of Javascript. More speculation: People who came to front-end development by choice are happier with Javascr…

Welcome to the programming world, js developers.
I never jumped on the CoffeeScript bandwagon .. I know people love it, just not me. Hence unlikely I will try TypeScript.

When people point out that Google is behind Angular, they fail to mention that the level of investment is nowhere near that of Facebook in React. I've been loving using React. Building in components is fantastic, and it just feels like writing Javascript. That's a win in my books.
I am in Germany and this link forces a redirect to angularjs.blogspot.de because of my location (which is a version of the blog in German, which I don't read). No simple way around this, and no link I can see to go to .com instead. That's quite frustrating.
