Wrapping It Up

• For many developers choosing the framework for
  development is not the thing that matters, but
  what they put in can make the building stay
  strong. Now when we talk about the frameworks,
  they all come with their set of pros and cons and
  developers get to choose the one they feel will
  fit their needs. No doubt with Angular
  development one can build a number of successful
  projects, but now we have more alternatives which
  are growing steadily.
