Having mutability/2-way-databinding makes angular hardly benefit from using TypeScript. State is just so much pain and it is hard to make impossible states not representable in the types.

Angular requires a lot of extra steps to get the templates properly type-checked (and you even need an editor plugin for that). I can't even name which non-standard entries in the tsconfig are necessary to have all templates checked entirely.

Most people use the cli to generate new components. Where in other frameworks, you just create a new file, maybe use a snippet and call it a day, the cli yields a test, scss, html and the actual component code as separate files.

Having worked with angular and react for 5 years in parallel, I'm pretty certain that I'd never touch angular again. The DX is so complicated in comparison. Despite forcing you to use TypeScript, angular is the framework that benefits the least of it.
