My opinion on Angular 18 & React 19

Angular 18 & React 19 RC were released.
Two major frameworks (yes, React is a library .... ) and two major versions.
Here's my opinion on both!

I have been using Angular for several years, I learned with your course and I am still using this framework. I love it and enjoy new features with each new feature.

Yesterday I created a simple firstname/lastname form and Copilot suggested to prefill the form values with {firstName: Maximilian, lastName: Schwarzmüller}. Have never ever heard of this channel/person but here I am

I am deep and dirty into Angular 18 and I love it. My latest angular projects have already been configured to go zoneless. The new signals approach is awesome, imho.

From a Vue developer.

Angular is innovating again and again improving their DX and performances. The team is doing an amazing job !

On the other hand we have React. I mean can we say React anymore since now even in the doc, they don't tell you how to create a React project but Next / Remix projects... As you mentioned React server components can basically be used only with a server so again it is like "Just use Next"...

No innovation to their reactivity system as well, how in 2024 can you offer something like useState and useReducer when Angular and Quick come with Signal, Vue with refs and Svelte with runes ... Everything with better performances than React most of the time.

Let's not forget that these news are coming after a hiatus. I feel that, due to their leading position on the market, React team do not really care about DX or significantly improving their tool anymore.

It is so frustrating to work with React IMO when you worked with other libraries and see what could be done.

i view your course on 1.5x and now it feels weird listening to you in your normal pace.

It took me a while, but I finally landed an Angular Job. Coming from non technical space, the switch was kinda hard initially but thanks to your course in udemy, it became possible. Thanks Max, for making this happen! :')

You are one of the best teachers i ever came across on internet ❤

4:42 finally someone with enough clout in the community went out there and said it.

Angular is not for everyone. And if you are an Angular dev, I know you're enjoying your own path 👏 I love Angular

Hello @Maximilian Schwarzmüller, you forgot to mention a very important point, that React 19 brings Compiler.
We don't need to explicitly write useMemo, useCallback and React.memo. It could bring a lot of performance improvements.

[EduardKaresli]

The more these libraries and frameworks put emphasis on SSR the less they can be called "front-end".
But I'm looking forward to use React 19, maybe Next 15 too.

BEST THING IN REACT IS THAT IT HAS ITS COMPILER NOW

[AGUNGKAYA]

I really like angular because I use ionic often for my mobile development. I just think that stick to angular (and also ionic) makes the learning curve more focused than (maybe) learn new thing like flutter (I don't like the widget concept. But I like dart language). But this is my opinion. And I never touch react.

[pavelzapletal]

Its really scary, how React development is tied to Next.js. We can one day wake up and see that unless we start paying vercel (next.js) some money, we wouldnt be able to work with it anymore :/ . Dont really like how Next.js interfere with React itself. Still I like working with Next.js but these are my honest thoughts.

Back in 2017, someone hired me to work with an angular app, I did not know anything about this framework, even almost nothing about frontend. then I came across with your content, It was use-full. About the comparison btwn angular and react, i think both have theirs advantages, depends on each project's use case, but Angular is taking a good path since the last releases, It has been improving many things that ppl was complaining for, they are detaching from some dependencies, also improved the bundle size and changing the directives that ppl hated the most. So Angular for big projects and oriented on live, streaming, etc. React more about general projects, but with a lower learning curve timeline for developer, since it is easy to learn

[CodingAbroad]

I’m disappointed that Angular 18 ssr still doesn’t have the di tokens for request and response objects like Angular Universal has

[lunddpz]

Awesome Sr
I have a question? Are you planning to update React Native Course ?

[YummyExtraSteps]

Keep up the channel updates. Great stuff!
