I know this sounds like a pretty generic question, but I have already made a research and there is not much information out there, other than these two seem not to "play" very well together.

I am referring to the latest version of Foundation, 5, which just got released. If AngularJS can work with jQuery, and Foundation is using jQuery, what is it that causes the problem, if there is a problem at all.

Has any of you used these two together? And what could be some better alternatives on the JS side of things? Backbone? Ember? Which one would work with Foundation and why?

p.s. I am aware that Twitter Bootstrap works well with AngularJS, however, for my project, Foundation is a requirement.

Thanks,
Iraklis

We recently adapted most Angular UI Bootstrap components for use with the Foundation CSS and open sourced the code: http://pineconellc.github.io/angular-foundation/
