Building the 2048 game in AngularJS | Javascript | Scoop.it

One of the most frequently asked questions we get is when would Angular be a poor choice to use as a framework. Our default answer is usually when writing games as Angular has it’s own event loop handling (the $digest loop) and games usually require lots of low-level DOM manipulation. This is an inaccurate description as there are manytypes of games where Angular can support. Even games that require heavy DOM manipulation can use the angular framework for the static parts, such as tracking high scores and game menus.
