- Both Angular and VB make it easy to get a "pretty" GUI up and running quickly.
- Both Angular and VB require quite a bit more knowledge to make a more sophisticated application beyond a simple interface.
- There are plenty of other languages that are difficult to get even a simple example up and running, but tend to force certain organization and partitioning from the start.
So it is always necessary to have "high level of understanding discipline, and organization to produce high quality large-scale products." It just seems to me that Angular (like VB) is extra easy for simple things and extra hard for sophisticated things.
A specific example - Angular directives. You can happily code for quite awhile without defining your own. Until one day you decide to integrate another library and then need to "wrap" all of your code.
Another example, Angular is described as working with jQuery (which it does). However, if you don't understand Angular's event loop and start doing jQuery stuff outside of it, mayhem ensues.
