What do you like best about angularjs?

Clear and concise structuring because of the way that controllers, services and alike are implemented.

Once you get your head around development with AngularJS structuring your application is very nice.

Using additional generators like Yeoman (http://fountainjs.io is my favorite) and the immense community - providing tutorials, information and many libraries and components - make the experience very fast and painless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about angularjs?

I'm not a JS person from the get-go. Angularjs has cost me some hours when conflicts didn't present themselves as clear as could be because Angular doesn't always show clear debug information. This is partly caused by the bounds and limits of the Javascript language but still.

Until it finally became clear that AngularJS tolerates jQuery but that the best results are made when you drop the jQuery usage entirely it was quite a struggle sometimes to get implementations working. Now I know you should use Angular for mutations and interaction implementing and not a combi with jQuery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering angularjs:

AngularJS is nice. I'm still learning to work with Angular2 and think that component based development has outgrown MVC setups so there lies the actual future. But the community and resources available for AngularJS still make it a valid framework for nowadays. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is angularjs solving and how is that benefiting you?

I've developed websites and mobile (hybrid) apps using AngularJS and once you have selected the right tools (gulp, yeoman FountainJS, ionic framework, etc) and get a nice workflow going the development time gets smaller and the coding amount increases project after project.

What do you like best about angularjs?

Although there are some tricks required for certain situations, once you get the hang of it, you can create a robust application rapidly. From version 1.5, you can apply flux like data flow architecture with one way binding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about angularjs?

With complex pages (e.x. many form inputs), the two way binding and digest cycle (the change detection architecture for AngularJS) will significantly slow down the performance. For now, there are only hackish ways to avoid these problems and are pretty difficult for novice developers. Furthermore, the built in router and REST API service won't satisfy your needs most of the time and you will tend to replace it with other services (e.x. ui-router, Restangular). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering angularjs:

AngularJS has a very large community and many robust libraries. Angular2 has been released so it is difficult to decide which to use. But from AngularJS 1.5, you can create AngularJS apps in a design like Angular2. And it is said that you can gradually convert the code base to Angular2. So it is still a good decision to choose AngularJS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is angularjs solving and how is that benefiting you?

I've created many enterprise applications with AngularJS. Mostly converting manual workflow (e.x. using Excel) to web service workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about angularjs?

If you design a application for different platform angularJS is one of the best frameworks for the client side. you just need to design web services and then you can easily create an interactive and fast web site. I also like the size compare previous works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about angularjs?

At first it's fairly complicated to start because of different component, but when you learned the basic it's become easily, I also didn't like some of keyworks and syntaxes I think they can have better structures. In general the most annoying part was beginning using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering angularjs:

If you are using a old client side framework I really recommend considering the angular. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is angularjs solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have two project we solve with AngularJS first one was an electronic market that we need to have both mobile applications and web site we used angular to build the web site part we used it on top of django. the other project was among 10 people which was our first project we choose Angular because we wanted to lean it. the project was a crowdsourcing platform.

What do you like best about angularjs?

The best of AngularJS is that it offers a complete development environment for big SPA (Single page apps). So, only using angular you have a consistent and well-structured environment that helps you to build big sites based on several components like Modules, Services, Factories, Directives etc. Each component have its own function and this guide you in the development process, which allows you to develop organized web-apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about angularjs?

The same that helps you to build organized web-apps cause that these apps become "fat apps", with a lot of dependencies. In the other hand, the digest cycle of Angular makes it a big CPU consumer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering angularjs:

In this time, when AngularJS 2 is raising and ReactJS it's over the table, I recommend to take a look directly on these tools instead of AngularJS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is angularjs solving and how is that benefiting you?

Information systems. The main benefits for apps of this kind, are the structure. Modules, services and reusable directives helps you to organize big web-apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about angularjs?

I used it in my previous job and I remember especially one thing: It was FAST.

Even in not very powerful machines.

It goes to the point, just create web services and then create the web environment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about angularjs?

I had a lot of bugs, and as far as I know it still has.

It's a pity with such a good community behind and not very good support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is angularjs solving and how is that benefiting you?

Basically to add more power to our websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about angularjs?

Its ability to inject data with a format that remains easy to interpret for designers is nice to keep all in the loop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about angularjs?

It does get a bit cumbersome for getting the project ready and is rather opinionated which tends to silo a team into a single framework mentality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering angularjs:

Take the time to learn and come up to speed with it. It can be a bit heavy handed in some places, but it is growing and makes sense in a number of places. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is angularjs solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have used Angular for creating a way to communicate live between platform and server and keep things fresh. The biggest benefit we have was the ability to match the front end development to live mockups mostly intact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about angularjs?

AngularJS is extremely easy, is fast to start a new application and powerful enough to create a huge application. I can't omit a important feature, is totally open source. Created and maintained by community, the documentation is diverse. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about angularjs?

I don't know why but the market share of AngularJS is not great yet, this is not great because fewer projects is able to hiring people with this skills. Doesn't seems there is a strategy about enhance the market share %, because the AngularJS 2.0 is been released to compete the share with the "Angular 1.0", It's strange strategy to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering angularjs:

Angular is a great framework, my recommendation is to study each case that Angular.JS offer before start develop, is easy to use but you can spend resources unnecessarily. Start simple but stills get improved in this technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is angularjs solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm developing web and windows applications to intelligent system of urban mobility, couple months ago we developing our first project using AngularJS, but we doesn't using SPA in this website to students make your own revalidation to system. Testing AngularJS with a little more experience now, we think that use a SPA approach was the best scenario. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about angularjs?

The idea of structure that angular provides is fantastic. Is allow you to maintain scale able code efficiently with out TOO much overhead. It forces you into some best practices that most people should be using anyway. Did I mention the community? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about angularjs?

It is very opinionated. While it is very powerful, it makes you follow their own design and rules without allowing you to customize the framework as much as others like Backbone, It is easy to pick up and throw an app together, but it is very difficult to get wrapped around some of the more robust features that it provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering angularjs:

If you are looking at Angular just to be on the bleeding edge that go for it. It is definitely in the forefront. If you are looking for a stable platform to build an application out of, prepare for a large learning curve. It it very steep once you begin to get into the real heavy features,. . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is angularjs solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main problem I tried to solve using Angular was creating an app that was reusable. I thought it would work great for that purpose because it has a large community as well as a defined structure to follow. The problem i ran into was the implementation. It takes a significant investment of time to learn and actually implement the framework. It is easy to make something extremely basic but once you begin to make something that is more toward the production level it takes a lot of time to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about angularjs?

It is far more easy to create good applications with frameworks like angularjs that with jquery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about angularjs?

Some concepts are difficult at the beginning: differences between services and factories for example. It is not very easy to use at the beginning. But I think they addressed all of this with the second version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
