Stages of learning angular js
1. Wtf
2. I think I get it.
3. Wtf

That's not tru unless u learn angular 1.x. Go to 4 it's really dope

:')

I couldnt even bring angular 4 quick-start to life. 🤓

Once you understand scope im angular everything gets easier

I am currently between 1 and 2.

Stages of learning React:
1. wow
2. wow
3. wow

You forgot to mention the longest step:
Step 0: decide to use Angular or React or Vue or Meteor or Ember or jQuery or Backbone or Batmobile or Spongebob or Naruto or Cheetos

@kudamalam all of those are different tools 😂😂😂. Though true, a hammer or a mallet..mhmm

More like:
1. Wtf?
2. Oh, I think I understand.
3. I can build a basic to do list.
4. I can build a solid a....
... 5. Angular 2 is out.

Well tbh angular 1.x yeah... The mystery box that kept on giving.. but angular 2+ has been mostly intuative... (Mostly)

Am I the only dev in the world that never had a hard time with Angular.js? I find it really easy to use and grasp. Their API is very well documented, I hardly had to read any tuts, save for third party libraries on Scotch.io but really?

Triple plus. I was thinking about this this morning. I intentionally choose not to memorize how to work with Angular 1.x because after resolving each stupid gremlin I remember thinking, yeah, this was way too over engineered. Like let's take the fun of memorize trig formulas and put that into code.

@nicholai you're not alone. Directives scared me at first until I spent a day with it, and realised it was just misunderstood. Aren't we all?

@ronakkaria right? The only counter-intuitive thing I stumbled upon is the symbols for specifying data bindings. Like. They couldve been words like evaluate, one and two, but again, the docs are clear on usage

@nicholai I thought transcludes were pretty tricky (when you want to do something complex.. can't remember what now. Been long since I used it). But that's fair enough.. it's a feature of the framework you'll rarely use.

Is it better to start from angular 2? Or maybe 4? Idk angular 1 is a bit messy for me

@wOnzky yea whatever the latest is.. why would you use angular 2?

@burmesepornstar
Thanks! That make sense :) I'll check out lastes ver

What I see is "ng-" which means "not good".
...
4. Wtf

Try Angular 5 to 6....

More wtf.... !!!!!!!!

I had the same impression with nativeScript Vue:

_ cool stuff

_ wow

_ wtf

_ [ I started to learn React ]

@the224 really?

I use AngularJS and it's quite ok.

I'm curious about the more recent versions...but they're very similar to React

@tiuscia it's totally different
