Well said.

Although the learning curve was steep and painful but AngularJS saved me from the terrible spaghetti soup of javascript + jQuery. The UI I work on is a bit complex and AngularJS makes it a piece of cake to keep it all-together. Code reuse and stability is awesome. But on the downside I still get caught off guard by "$apply already in progress" and despite all the PhantomJS trickery I am yet to recover from the SEO mess that migrating to AngularJS created for me. Overall the benefits far outweigh the cons though. It was only due to AngularJS that I could add multi-currency support on my site in less than half a day.

I’ve always been under the impression that the use case for AngularJS is applications, and by definition it is not intended for anything where SEO is a concern (e.g. 99.9% of AngualrJS apps should be post-login). Is this not the case? What are you doing with Angular that SEO is enough of a concern to try to work around it, but not enough of a concern not to use Angular?

Full disclosure, I’ve never used Angular but it’s next on my list of things to learn.

I agree with your point regarding applications being dynamic and SEO only for the content heavy stuff. My site is a mix of both where the content is sprinkled with pieces of data that is dynamic.
