Bill Erickson (berick) wrote : Migrate Browser Client to Angular 1.4 + Dependencies

Evergreen master (circa 2.10)

The browser client uses AngularJS 1.2. It also uses a variety of dependencies (e.g. angular-bootstrap, etc.) that depend on the version of AngularJS in use. To better prepare for the pending release of Angular 2.0, and to avoid the pitfalls of falling too far behind, we should update the browser client code and dependencies to use the latest stable version of Angular (1.4).

Opening this now to kick things off. Will follow up with more details on what steps I expect will be needed and hopefully some initial code.

As a heads up, once the ball is rolling, I believe we'll need a good bit of community assistance with testing the existing code to ensure that no stones are left unturned.
