Agreed.

I work in a large health care organization and they decided a two years ago to jump on the Angular bandwagon. Well, after some serious growing pains they were able to get it to work. One of the major issues was the "executives" just paid a hefty fee to bring in AEM (Adobe Experience Manager) and anything the teams wanted to do had to be able to integrate with AEM. I won't bore with the details, but it was painful.

After a long journey to get those issues solved, the Angular team came out and said they were going in a totally different direction for Angular 2. One of my responsibilities was to write up a migration path to 1.5, and then how to eventually make a full migration to 2.

Yeah, after I told upper management about the rapid release cycle, they just about choked. No way an org this big can move that fast. At this point, any future projects won't have it and we're in legacy support already for three other projects who did use it.

In short, Angular in all forms is dead here, which is sad.
