Angular2 is a
awesome
platform...
for building great form, components,etc in the DOM
The DOM is awesome but...
Warning...
I'm not saying this is a GREAT idea but something to explore...
But why??
Same problems, different framework
- Click & Touch Event Binding
- Window Resize Events
- Keyboard Binding
- Life-cycle events ( Init/Destory/etc )
- Animations
- Styling
- Workflow Builds ( Webpack )
- Event Subscribing
- Dataflow
the list goes on....
WebGL is way more intense too...
- WebVR / Head Tracking
- Audio is almost always present
- Voice in some cases
- Shaders/Vectors/etc

There are some downsides...
Such as: DOM Rendering and Updating overhead even though you aren't doing anything with it...
