I won't be using Angular for my next project and neither should you

Actually I work pretty closely with my juniors and teach them the right way to do it. That and provide a code base of conventions that shows them the right way to do it. It's really hard for me to understand how you let juniors get to the point of having bad habits. If you see them doing something wrong, let them know, provide them feedback telling them why what they did was wrong and show them how to do it right. It's really not that hard, just part of the job.

Any technology (not just Angular) has the potential to be misused. As a senior developer/architect it's my job to review and mentor my teammates as appropriate. I don't really see this as a problem particular to Angular, it's something you have to watch out for everywhere.

Well thats the goal of PRs : ) But its not one time affair, and takes time and investment from your self. So I like to think that I have done right by devs i worked with, helped them out a lot, gave them freedom and responsibilities. It paid off for those who stuck around.

Bottom line, it depends on so many things and so much time, to bring everyone on same level. And some developers are brought for only like 3 months. For a project that I ve been part of, so devs just did not like the project that they worked on, and cycled right through.
