ASP.NET MVC (Razor) vs Angular 5

Ross

We are currently considering moving from ASP.NET MVC to Angular 5, mostly because it seems like the best and latest framework. However none of us seems to be able to come up with hard reasons on why Angular is better than MVC (Razor).

SPA vs MPA seems like different approaches with neither really being better - just better at different things.

Are there any resources/comparisons with hard benefits between the two?

Update: Almost 2 years after moving to Angular 4 (currently 7) I can say that it was a great decision. Angular makes it super easy to write quite complex front-end applications and the tooling around Angular itself, TypeScript, Karma + Jasmine (unit test frameworks) is fantastic. SPA is a huge step ahead of MPA in my opinion - we can finally have fluid web experience. I never really liked Razor and the whole mess around ajax/jquery, but I can comfortably say that I am really enjoying my time now! .NET CORE 3 + Angular 7 gives us everything we need!

To anyone thinking of taking the plunge, I would strongly recommend Angular (might as well start with 8 or 9, which is current at the time of writing this).

Happy to add more details if people want them :)

6 months on from moving from ASP.NET MVC to Angular 5 (now 6) and we are extremely happy with the decision. .NET core backend and Angular frontend is a fantastic combination. It is so much cleaner and easier to create re-usable, strongly-typed, testable and easy to modify UI components!

For anyone considering if it's worth taking the plunge - I would say a resounding 'yes'!
