Creating a "real" Angular app is ridiculously difficult, because it requires you to learn some sort of backend technology, SQL, HTTP and a gazillion other unrelated technologies. This implies that before you can create as much as a single (useful) Hello World app in Angular, you've spent the larger parts of a decade to learn unrelated technologies required to know before you can connect your Angular app to a database, and actually do something useful with your app.

If you want to create a "real" Angular app though, you'll need some sort of backend, which of course implies spending 85% of your time, on things not even remotely related to Angular in any ways what so ever.

This implies he now has a million less things to worry about, yet still can create a real Angular app, connect it to an SQL database backend - And as he proceeds up to the point where he's good enough to maybe get a job as a frontend developer, he can use a real app as a part of his resume, and even host it for as little as $5 per month if he wants to send it to potential employers wanting to hire him.

However, creating a real Angular app, with a real backend, is at least 10 times as hard as creating a pure Angular app - Unless you use Magic of course.
