Incorporating the Angular 1.4.9 ng-animate module has been successful for us so far, but some of our teams are now seeking a way to prevent it from loading under certain conditions.
For instance, they have requested that ng-animate does not load on a specific platform or user agent.
We currently have various methods in place to check for these conditions (such as modernizr) and use them to selectively load other .js and .css files. However, excluding the ng-animate js file directly would result in an error since it is part of a module.
