With react I like the versatility. With angular I like the observable thought.

I find it easier to build REST structures with react. I find it easier to write web socket based apps with angular.

Wow, that's cool. What do you think about Vue JS?

I have not done a serious application with it. I disliked the syntax with everything in one file, however I think if I'd start it again I'd have a different opinion (now that I learned react).

Typescript is a must IMHO. On small scale products it does not matter - I'd even say JS better because less overhead- , but if you plan to develop this over the span of multiple years with switchting developers the quality of code is so much better with typescript. (But please use webpack + esbuild... babel is so slow)

I want to figure out how to do nice SSR inside a Lambda function, Vue could be a candidate.

Technically I know how to archive it, however a proper DX that I haven't archived. (Auto refresh / Hot reloading. Proper error messages and stuff)
