Discussion on: Angular is almost always better than React

I don't like either of them. React used to be great when we used classes. Now everyone has to use hooks for everything and treats functions like classes when we should have just stuck to that to begin with. Absolute mess of a framework. Angular has excellent organization but I have several gripes: file hell, too many directives, bloated bundles, and webpack is awful (wish you would migrate to vite instead). I use Vue and even that's starting to suck becase Vue 3 just wants to copy react with Composition API. If I'm gonna be writing declarative code, I might as well just use Svelte; much cleaner, very light weight and simple to use

I have never really looked at Vue or Svelte, and they might be the holy grail of SPAs for all I know. However, this article wasn't about what me and you "like", it was about the sensible decision for companies when starting out new projects.
