CoffeeScript AngularJS documentation generator - angularjs

I'm writing large application with CoffeeScript and AngularJS, and for now using Codo to build documentation. But it's too class-oriented and slightly uncomfortable for me. Doco and Coffeedoc not suitable too. Any suggestion what may I use?

What is the best version of ngTagsInput for Angular not AngularJs

I found the ngTagsInput framework
https://mbenford.github.io/ngTagsInput/
a very feature-rich library. But for Angular 8 users I found the ngx-chips framework
https://www.npmjs.com/package/ngx-chips
It appears to work, but appears to be missing some obvious features, or it the features are achievable they appear to be difficult to implement. For example: providing chips of different colors.
Questions:
1) Is ngx-chips the most capable replacement for ngTagsInput for the Angular 2+? is there something better?
2) I understand it's not recommended to use a angularjs library inside of Angular 2+? So using the ngTagsInput library can be used?
ngx-chips was the best opensource framework I found at this time. Documentation is a bit terse, but the software is self appears solid.

Disadvantages and advantages of using typescript with Angular 1.6

We have a big project that currently runs in angular 1.4 version. We are integrating now Webpack, Typescript and Angular 1.6 version to be migration ready for angular 2/4.
We realize the advantages of bringing Webpack instead of our own build/bundling system. Angular 1.6 is also necessary step towards angular 2.
We do not have yet ES6. So we use ES5.
So question is: What are the advantages and disadvantages of integrating typescript with angular 1.6?
The question is not about whether typescript itself brings to us, but how clean, easy and less problematic for developers would be to have typescript with angularjs.
Really appreciate for sharing your experiences of using typescript with Angularjs.
EDIT: Cons we have found so far: Type Definition, Finding help will be a challenge, extra overhead of transpiling (sometime could very long), convinsing developers are hard because of lack of resources to get help.
Best,
I worked with TS + Angular 1.6 combo, and TS can help all areas of the code, except the html templates of course. You can iteratively migrate to TS, one file after the other. TS is will not slow you down. When you write the code, you know how your objects, services, controllers look like, so it shouldn't be a problem to write the types after the variables. The code completion it brings in VSCode or Atom, etc, are very helpful. I usually wrote interfaces for the scope of a component/directive, so it was easy to see what the controller see on the angular scope. Also with TS you will be able to use features like async/await, and that can really clean up codes with lots of promises for example.
But I'm a little biased towards TS because I'm coming from the Java world and TS was easier for me than plain JS.

Is zurb-foundation compatible with Angular JS?

I need to migrate an site from one framework to another because I need to use Angular JS.
I found zurb-foundation very interesting. It happens that it seems to use jQuery.
According to this website https://scotch.io/tutorials/how-to-correctly-use-bootstrapjs-and-angularjs-together
When building out Angular projects, you should not add on the full jQuery library. jQlite is already included in Angular and this should be all the jQuery that is necessary.
I had a bad experience running Bootstrap and Angular together and I don't want to repeat the same mistake.
It happens that I found the following line at zurb-foundation index.html
<script src="js/vendor/jquery.js"></script>
A quick search has shown that it seems to be a "simplified" version of jQuery (am I wrong?).
I've seem many people questioning things related to Angular in Foundation apps.
My question is: Is Angular compatible with Foundation?
While you'll read in many places that you should stay away from jQuery when using Angular, you'll also notice a subtle "at first" here and there. Angular is quite opinionated, and employs a declarative way of doing things, whereas jQuery is imperative. Check this out for more on the topic.
To answer your question:
Scotch.io's tutorial about Angular and Bootstrap involves UI Bootstrap, a library of directives written in Angular to be able to integrate common Bootstrap functionalities easier.
The equivalent of UI Bootstrap for Foundation is Angular Foundation. I recommend giving this thread a look-over as well, as it contains information that may be relevant to your use case.
So yes, Angular is compatible with Foundation. Happy hacking :)
a quick answer is of course they are compitable with each other. check this out from Zurb. However if you do not want to use JQuery, then the easiest way is to use pineconellc for foundation 5. foundation 6 does not have a port yet as far as I know.

AngularJS-based UI Components, quantumui vs. angular-strap vs. angular-bootstrap-ui

I have been looking for a component set for a start-up project which would be based on AngularJS.
After some research, I have found three common component sets which can be applicable.
The first is AngularJS Bootstrap UI. It seems clear, but there are no enough examples and documentation.
The second is angular-strap. I have seen that it is a simple implementation of bootstrap.js with some additional features, but it seem very simple.
And the last one is QuantumUI. I have seen that it is amazing, but it seems very new.
What is the experience with these frameworks? Can you list pros cons for them?
I am owner of QuantumUI and is is not truth to say anything about other's projects.
However I can say that in short;
ui-bootstrap: is pure angular based, but it is old and not compatiable with new angular versions. Also it's plugins are very simple.
Also angular-strap is a implementation of bootstrap.js. Namely, it isn't a project of angular thinking.
However QuantumUI is a compact angular solution. It's components are powerful, server and developer friendly and also there is no Jquery dependency. All components are results of angular thinking.

Any boilerplate of Backbone+Requirejs+CoffeeScript?

Recently I'm looking for a well structured boilerplate of Backbone along with Requirejs and CoffeeScript. I've been familiar with Backbone and Requirejs already. But I prefer the CoffeeScript more than the original js. Anyone has a good idrea of it?
Here's a tiny weekend project I did recently called flickr date fixer. It's not set up to be used as boilerplate, but it's small enough to serve essentially the same purpose.
