Angular for the SPA that has to last

Angular is a front-end for products that will still be here in five years: routing, forms, and a team that can live inside one opinionated framework.

The previous site advertised “Angular developers ready for hire” and then stamped that sentence over every city in a gazetteer. The hire offer was real. The cities were not. If you arrived from /angular-developers-ready-for-hire, you are now on the page that can stand without a place name.

The staffing question

We examine Angular people on the version you run, on forms and routing, and on whether they have shipped a render strategy. An Angular résumé that has never thought about the first HTML response is a search problem waiting to happen.

The rendering question

  • Prerender the public routes that do not change per user.
  • Server-render the routes whose content is real and fresh.
  • Leave signed-in chrome client-side, and keep it out of the sitemap.
