Discussion on: Angular is almost always better than React

As somebody else mentioned out of 10 devs, 2 have used angular before they moved on to react, vue, svelte etc

I've seen several claims that React is 5 times larger than Angular. I know React is larger, but I'd still like to see these numbers before I believe the number is 5x. I suspect it's more like 1.5x, but I might be wrong ...

Well I'm not sure how accurate npmtrends.com can be but the first suggested search is exactly what we're looking for: angular vs react vs vue.

Now if we just go by the ratios between different frameworks, React is in fact installed 5 times more than angular.

If we add Next.js into the mix which is just a framework built on top of React its as big as angular itself.
