Angular Isn't Actually Hard
summary
Presents Angular as an opinionated, full‑stack frontend framework that reduces team friction by standardizing router, forms, HTTP, PWA and server‑side rendering and by using TypeScript by default. Highlights Angular CLI for scaffolding components, tests, ng add integrations (AngularFire, service worker) and env builds; notes RxJS is present but optional (HTTP returns Observables while Promises also work), 6‑month major releases with year‑long deprecations, production builds to reduce bundle size, good documentation, and a small JSON‑validation utility released by the author.
