Greetings Alex! What's your current favorite tech stack, or front-end setup of choice?

Hey Chris! I worked for my degree thesis with Angular (2+) and Node.js and I loved it, but currently I'm working at my job with React + Redux and it's been great.

Nice! What is the biggest difference that you've found between Angular and React? I'm always curious what people who move from one to the other have to say about that :)

I think I miss the *ngIf, *ngFor and so on, but I've found that doing it in a "JS way" improved my JS skills. Also, I've found JSX a little weird at first, but now I got used to it. And the two-way data binding in Angular vs one-way in React

Thanks - yeah, I think JSX is a hangup for a lot of people, until you really get into it :)
