> If you work at Google: Angular Doesn't Google actually prefer Polymer? https://www.polymer-project.org/

I don't think Google prefer either, YouTube was recently migrated to Polymer, They use Angular(Dart) from Adwords. almost all other projects use vanilla JavaScript(with closure compiler)

The post is wrong about React changing the BSD+Patent license. It hasn't changed and is still an issue, depending on who you ask. [0] https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/10191# [1] https://code.facebook.com/posts/112130496157735/explaining-r...

That second article is a total cover-up.

By that PATENTS.md file, Facebook could totally ream a company by doing the following:

1. Identify a competitive service or one that FB would like to build into their offerings, that is currently using React.

2. Litigate against that company, with any patent claim, whether justifiable or not. It will take months, if not years, for even the most frivolous suit to get thrown out.

3. Use the litigation period to revoke the company's license to React, effectively shutting down their product.

I recently used both Angular 2 and React (the latter more recent) in some small projects. While I enjoyed working with React, I think Angular is more suited for me, a one-man startup.

A lot of decisions are already made and I just follow them. In React, every time I need something not built-in (which is very often), I have to do some research, and even after deciding one, I have this "what if I'm wrong" guilt at the back of my head. Of course I can "be wrong" too by choosing Angular, but at least I'm wrong for the whole stack :D

I think angular just makes more sense in larger projects. Imo, It has quite a lot of overheard that only pays off when working in larger teams.
