Then IMO angular should have not do GUI part at all, rather then the bad thing they created in angular1.

Honestly I have no idea why would you compare angular with Rails, it includes some basic routing, and some pathetic wrappers for existing native functions, and the $emit/$on , what other plumbing I am forgetting ?

There are still a ton of super quality jQuery plugins for Widgets that are still used today, I seen a lot of angular code just wrapping (badly most of the time) jQuery. And on top of that angularjs used jQuery (or a lite version) too.

Did you wrote desktop or mobile application with the native toolkits ? I am curious if the misunderstandings are because if you only used Web tech then angular would appear to be something great where if you come from Desktop/Mobile you see angularjs as garbage, better then bad jQuery code but probably worse then anything else.
