The best Angular alternatives

3 tools that do a similar job to Angular, 3 of them open source. Each entry says what it does and who it suits, so you can pick the one that fits instead of the most famous.

You're replacing

Angular

    Best for: Developers who want to build interactive websites with less boilerplate; Teams building web apps who prefer a compiler-based approach

  3. 3

    Ember.js

    Open source · MIT · ★ 22.6k

    A JavaScript framework for building large web applications with conventions and built-in tools.

    Best for: Developers building large, long-lived web applications; Teams that want built-in routing, components, and data management in one framework

How we pick: tools in the same category that solve the same problem, projects that name each other as alternatives, and open-source projects that describe themselves as an alternative to Angular. We don't take payment for placement.
