Angular 2 was the break from AngularJS, and essentially the start of the 
downhill slide.

I've only used angular for about 2 years (sporadically, for work), and 
it's probably the worst framework of any language I've ever seen. When I 
first was looking at angular, I was looking at (what is now) AngularJS, 
and it didn't look too bad. But I never got to use it. Since Angular 2, 
it requires a compiler to build your javascript web pages, plus you are 
not writing html any more, or using the browser's features, it all has 
to go through the framework. The whole thing is extra complicated for 
the sake of being complicated.
