Is it worth learning Angular 1x now?

Question

JavaScript

Hello! Tell me, is it worth studying Amgular 1x versions right now, or is it already possible to look closely at the 2nd version? And yet, how long will the 1x version of Angular be popular?

Answer 1

Everything depends on the goals.
If there is a desire to support old projects, then yes, it is worth studying. The developers will still support the first version for a couple of years. There are still vacancies, and there are more of them than in the second one. But over time, these projects will either switch to 2-ku, or become a legacy code, which is still a pleasure to cut. Well, there is no reason to start writing new projects on the 1st branch.
Yes, there are still few vacancies in the second angular, but the framework itself is in the RC stage. In six months or a year, they will noticeably increase.
