Summary

We recently migrated our web UI from Angular 1 to React, driven by a desire for better architecture and performance. We initially considered a gradual migration approach but ultimately decided on a full rewrite due to the complexity of our existing architecture and the need for a fresh start. The transition was challenging, but with a clear Redux-based architecture and a modern build pipeline, we were able to onboard new team members quickly and efficiently. Our experience highlights the importance of considering the overall system architecture when making technical decisions, rather than just focusing on component-level changes. With our new architecture in place, we feel well-positioned for future growth and development.
