Like golang? Dart? Or Angular? They kill consumer products not programming languages or major frameworks..

Well, Angular is kind of dead now (or rather - will be). See https://twitter.com/sarah_edo/status/1770478763253379488

Wiz is awful and it's my read that a Wiz manager "won" a corporate battle and Angular (as it was) is dead.

Isn't Wiz internal only at Google? How can it replace Angular (honest question)?
These folks built their whole business on DartAngular only to be dropped when some manager decided that it’s time to push Flutter. https://medium.com/wriketechclub/wrike-is-sunsetting-its-ang...

Hardly anyone used the Dart Angular bindings so it was not surprising they got dropped. They were an early adopter and got bit.. this happens everywhere especially in frontend web development, and is certainly not specific to Google's frameworks.

Sometimes there's a lot of low hanging promo fruit! Generics were a Significant Engineering Challenge!
