To me at least angular makes a bit more sense than React’s way of doing things does. React tries to be functional with its components and yet it seems like they end up basically trying to mimic classes with useState and useEffect. To me Angular’s class-based approach makes a bit more sense (though I am primarily interested in backend development more than frontend so that could be why)

It does kind of fall into a lot of the traps of Object-Oriented programming though so I can see why a lot of people don’t like it
