AngularJs vs ReactJs?
For web development using node,express

No angularjs, its almost dead.

Personally I dont like React

So i would say Vue and if that is not possible Angular 2+.

@Codex404 it warms my heart to see angular dying out

Depends.

For easy start vue. It does not require as much boilerplate but for large applications I would use react with typescript, there are thousands of ready made modules.

And Facebook have proved they care a lot more about backward compatibility than angular have done.

@Codex404 over 2 million weekly downloads is dead?
Ok

@M1sf3t no offense my man but didn't you say in a post some time ago that you are not really a professional dev? What qualifies you to say that these people are behind?
AngularJS is dying and dead yes. But the current iteration of Angular is very much alive.

That's kind of a classic argument, which version of angular?!

@devJoe not like a new one doesnt come out every month

As an experienced user in AngularJS (1.x) and Angular 2+ (7.x currently 😅) I would only recommend AngularJS for websites that are rendered on the server and don't need a lot of JavaScript (e.g. if you only need JS for popping up some overlays or sending a form with AJAX etc.).
AngularJS' performance is not that great anyway.

For everything bigger, it's way easier to use Angular 2+ or a similar framework.

grabs popcorn. I need to know this too 😎

Correct question is: Angular vs ReactJs

May I add, it will depend to the demand of the market. If in your area mostly requires Angular then study Angular.

If your current work says "use ReactJs" then you need to follow.

If it is just a hobby then you can choose whatever you like 👍

@AleCx04 are you talking about angularjs or angular? I did not check downloads, but the amount of job offers for it.

@ganjaman no Angular is far from dying. AngularJS is

@sciobotaru besides the point of how shitty Material design looks: it is a hellhole to overwrite things. I have to add a day to my estimations just for overwriting things.

@sciobotaru angular material... But I hate it.

I rather write my own components. My favourite framework is Vue and after that Angular.

@sciobotaru and for overwriting it needs quite some importants in css, which makes it almost impossible to maintain.

@sciobotaru not for the nested things though, even the devs recommend using importants in the issues...

@Codex404 I hope vue job requirements in my area and all over the world will be at par with angular and react. Vue my favorite framework BUT most of the time employers don't like it. They usual prefer angular and react. What a life ☹️
