The biggest complaint I hear about Angular is that every release is a major breaking change (re-learn & re-write).

Thanks for sharing that, Tim. There are a lot of good ways to bring the IBM i to the web.
What was your shop's learning curve with Angular? I've heard Angular has a relatively steep learning curve, but I usually hear that from people advocating for other technologies. So I'd like to know your take on the learning curve for Angular.
The reasons why I'm looking at Node, Express and React are because: (a) we have another development team interested in Node on the IBM i for their own reasons, (b) a lot of people use Express with Node, and (c) React is being used in one form or another by some high volume sites. For example, Walmart is using Node with something called Electrode, which is based on React. And React was created by Facebook.
But other technologies can be equally good at meeting the needs of various shops.
Thanks,
