Angular not only appeals to Java developers, it also appeals to .NET developers. TypeScript of course borrowed a lot from C# (having the same designer) and dependency injection, MVC patterns etc closely resemble .NET patterns.

Interestingly, new Angular is slowly moving away from these, introducing Signals for state management and standalone components, and I see these developers actually struggling a lot to adopt new Angular patterns.

Still, I believe Angular is a really great platform for building B2B or enterprise apps. It’s testing and forms handling is far ahead of every other SPA, and it actually fees like a cohesive framework where people have spent time designing things the right way; something I absolutely cannot say about react frameworks such as Next.js or Remix.

Angular was created so Java developers could create browser apps

Angular 1.x seems vastly different than Java. I doubt a Java developer would want to use it, so I'm not sure your claim is valid.
