I'm not quite sure what's your point. Of course the magic has to happen somwehere. I just don't want to bother with it. AngularJS is not so easy to understand, but it works pretty well, for me at least.

The point is that the code is quickly piling up technical debt.

Maybe. But it could also benefit from Google's financial backing if it became as big as the author would like it to be. Then it wouldn't matter.

(By that I mean that there would be efforts made to keep it lean. I don't think Google is Microsoft.)

Besides just four files containing ~10k lines of code?

It's mostly comments and tests. Seems like exactly what you'd want.

Two of those are test files. Nothing wrong with more tests, and they seem descriptive to me. And it's a very easily testable framework, unlike some of the others in the thread.

We can't read your mind buddy! But agreed, 10k lines of code in just a few files is a valid point of concern.
