have you any suggestions of good tools for script tracing? Preferably opentracing.io compatible ones.

Is developer productivity part of business value?

... when the core business is some digital product?

Investing time in tooling, tests, refactoring and so on, adds more value for the business?

Thinking on the long term, if I spent some time updating code, refactoring, writing more tests, this contribute to raise more confidence in the code/product delivered, avoid bugs and other problems, and it seems to reduce later efforts.

What do you think?

Why to migrate from AngularJS to Angular?

λ • Geovani de Souza — Sat, 16 Dec 2017 23:02:25 +0000

There's tons of posts out there explaining "how", but not so much justifying "why" beyond the "oh, it's new, it's cool, just move on".

Consider existing projects, much of them medium to large in size and importance. The investment was already done. There's so much tooling and solid project standards that has evolved though time, just like the community around.

They deliver value to users that don't know what's AngularJS nor Angular, React or whatever.

So, beyond the "it's cool" hype, why should we consider migrate existing AngularJS projects to Angular (or anything else)?
