What to Expect from Your Framework

Can you name some companies that are actively investing in Angular right now besides Google? It feels like React has taken over for many large businesses (non-tech focused) because it's "easier" to hire React devs.

I used to work for a company where our manager (a few steps below CTO) was pushing for us to migrate to React from Vue so they could hire more people to come in and help with feature development. We pushed back and afaik the team is still using Vue today.

I’d say 50% of the devs I know use Angular. .NET shops love it. Fidelity and a lot of other financial businesses use it. I’d put money on heavy usage in the enterprise, though I haven’t been in that world in a long time.

Angular core has 3.5M weekly downloads. Quite a lot fewer than React’s 20M but still significant.

Sorry, I cannot, due to a confidentiality clause. Most of my employer’s clients use Angular though, some exclusively. They’re mostly machine tool builders from Germany.

Also, as someone else already guessed, they also all use .NET. This is not a coincidence of course, even though there is no rational argument to be found (“they both use classes!”).
