In this episode of Adventures in Angular, the panel discuss the state of JS survey with Sacha Greif. This is a survey that is sent out to developers in order to see what people perceive the state of JavaScript is. They talk about his inspiration for creating this survey as well as discuss the data that was collected. This is a great episode for people who want to hear interesting data on JS in today’s current climate.
