You have been learning a ton from angular lately. As much hate as it gets, it seems convenient to have everything baked in. Also seems like there are a ton of jobs in it so definitely worth learning.

Angular is still #2! Those who use it, including big companies love it.

100% John, it's an investment and companies don't like to switch to every "new" framework around the corner.
The same could be said about PHP frameworks or whatever.
They make investments and workflows and tend to fear change.
Although we keep up to date with Angular versions at least haha

React, to me is too opinionated. I'd rather use Svelte. Still Angular is awesome.

I have svelte on my try this someday list (it's quite a big list as you can imagine)
Do you have any good starting points for Svelte, or fun easy things to build?

No, currently I've only read introductory material. It looks similar to an ultra lite version of React but uses Web Component architecture. Pedal to the metal stuff.

I find the hate very ungrounded, yes React and Vue are cool and hip, but Angular has proven itself and is very stable.

Also companies invest in one stack, they don't jump on the React bandwagon as soon as it comes, that's what a lot of developers seem to forget somehow.
