This PR provides a comprehensive analysis of the current AngularJS 1.7.8 codebase and assesses the scope required for migrating to Angular 20.
Current State Analysis
The application is built on AngularJS 1.7.8 with the following key characteristics:
Migration Scope
A migration from AngularJS to Angular 20 would require:
Framework Changes:
Architecture Changes:
Dependencies:
Important Considerations
This migration represents a complete application rewrite rather than incremental updates. The frameworks have fundamentally different architectures, making it impossible to perform a minimal migration. Every controller, service, directive, and template would need to be rewritten.
The analysis serves as a foundation for planning the migration strategy, whether that involves a complete rewrite, phased migration using micro-frontends, or exploring alternative approaches.
