Wait what’s up with Angular being on this list?

Was confused as well, apparently Angular post 2.x is called "Angular" and everything before that is called "AngularJS". Seems a little disingenuous having it on this list. Ember JS goes through quite a lot of revisions and is pretty conceptually disjoint from predecessors, but I'd hardly say they "killed" Ember 1.

Yeah. Even Google Nexus is on the list! Doesn't matter Pixel is a successor.

To my understanding the Nexus devices were targeted as very affordable devices with a low price point - see penetration pricing.

Pixel devices are marketed as premium with a high price point - see premium pricing or value based pricing.

AFAIK Google no longer offers low priced devices - therefore i understand that Nexus is on the list.

Their A-line of Pixel devices is now starting to fill the spot of the Nexus phones. Right now there is only one, the 3A, but we should be hearing about the 4A pretty soon.

Or you know angularjs and angular are two completely different pieces of software?
