Angular

Pros

  • RxJS <-- That's just great!
  • Great developer experience
  • Forms are easy and flexible
  • Routing just works
  • Modules are a good concept for code reuse
  • Dependency Injection
  • CLI
  • It's a framework

Cons

  • It's a framework
  • Bad reputation due to old Angular.js, general verbosity and very different from all other frameworks and libraries
  • Market share is shrinking
  • Third-party libraries are incompatible and/or luckluster
  • Build times and build sizes tend to be heavy
