We started our project in Angular last year, and the updates are great. It feels like a proper framework a la Ruby on Rails or Django where as with React and Elm and other options it would have been more ad-hoc.
This is why I liked Elm as well because it bakes in a particular structure and adds static typing.
The other advantage is if you're hiring freelancing. From personal experience, anything that was custom and less opinionated cost more billable hours. Dealing with a framework like Laravel, Django, Rails cut costs in a noticeable way and the remaining work was actual hard problems to solve.
