this feels very true sometimes. lol

React.js:

A beefy JS framework that should only ever be used on projects that are of the magnitude of Facebook, the creators

I felt the same way when I got curious about Angular2 and started reading their "quickstart".

@kshep92 yea noting quick about it.. im messing now with react native... llove the 'evrything is a component' though

@kshep92
1. get angular-cli
2. ng new hello-world && cd hello-world
3. ng serve
4. ???
5. profit! :D

Check create-react-app on github

@FelisPhasma React is not a framework

i want to learn react native eventually. but don't really want to mess with android studio again lol i might get on it one day

@yusijs when I'm learning a new framework/tool I take a very ground floor approach so that I understand as much as possible what is going on in the event that something breaks. additionally with Angular 2, I won't be using it solely; it will be integrated with existing server rendered code.

That being said my workflow is as follows:
- Get the decencies for Angular and include them in my index page in the correct order.
- Configure tsc
- Configure System.js
- Create Angular component
- Create Angular module
- Create main.ts file
- Finally profit

As @darthy said, nothing quick about it. Trying to package up a "seed" folder structure so that I don't every have to go through this again. #pain

@kshep92 Yeah, setting up ng2 is a pain. That's really why I use the cli, to avoid the shitty setup procedure.
