Migrating from React to Angular: A "Ship of Theseus" case study.

The 'Ship of Theseus' Migration: Why We Swapped React for Angular in Production

In the software world, the “Ship of Theseus” paradox is a daily reality. We replace parts of a system until, eventually, none of the original code remains. But usually, the industry moves toward the “shiny new thing.” At work, we did something that might sound like heresy to some: we migrated our core legacy React applications to Angular. This wasn’t a decision made out of fanboyism. It was a strategic move driven by the need for governance, stability, and long-term maintainability in a high-stakes FinTech environment. In this post, I’ll break down the architectural “why” and the pragmatic “how” of moving against the grain.

The coming year will be pivotal for the Federal Reserve

The Federal Reserve is slated to undertake a number of important rules and regulations in 2026, but decisions around agency leadership and the Trump administration's avowed effort to exert greater control over the central bank are likely to leave a lasting legacy at the agency.
