Why AngularJS?
-- HTML is great for declaring static documents, but it falters when we try to use it for - declaring dynamic views in web-applications. AngularJS lets you extend HTML vocabulary - for your application. The resulting environment is extraordinarily expressive, readable, - and quick to develop. -
-Alternatives
-- Other frameworks deal with HTML’s shortcomings by either abstracting away HTML, CSS, - and/or JavaScript or by providing an imperative way for manipulating the DOM. Neither of - these address the root problem that HTML was not designed for dynamic views. -
-Extensibility
-- AngularJS is a toolset for building the framework most suited to your application - development. It is fully extensible and works well with other libraries. Every feature - can be modified or replaced to suit your unique development workflow and feature needs. - Read on to find out how. -
-The Basics
-Watch as we build this app
-
- Add Some Control
-Data Binding
-- Data-binding is an automatic way of updating the view whenever the model changes, as - well as updating the model whenever the view changes. This is awesome because it - eliminates DOM manipulation from the list of things you have to worry about. -
-Controller
-- Controllers are the behavior behind the DOM elements. AngularJS lets you express the - behavior in a clean readable form without the usual boilerplate of updating the DOM, - registering callbacks or watching model changes. -
-Plain JavaScript
-- Unlike other frameworks, there is no need to inherit from proprietary types; to wrap the - model in accessors methods. Just plain old JavaScript here. This makes your code easy to - test, maintain, reuse, and again free from boilerplate. -

- Wire up a Backend
-Deep Linking
-- A deep link reflects where the user is in the app, this is useful so users can bookmark - and email links to locations within apps. Round trip apps get this automatically, but - AJAX apps by their nature do not. AngularJS combines the benefits of deep link with - desktop app-like behavior. -
-Form Validation
-- Client-side form validation is an important part of great user experience. - AngularJS lets you declare the validation rules of the form without having to write - JavaScript code. Write less code, go have beer sooner. -
-Server Communication
-- AngularJS provides services on top of XHR, that dramatically simplify your code. We wrap - XHR to give you exception management and promises. Promises further simplify your code - by handling asynchronous return of data. This lets you assign properties synchronously - when the return is actually asynchronous. -
-Create Components
-Directives
-- Directives is a unique and powerful feature available only in Angular. Directives let - you invent new HTML syntax, specific to your application. -
-Reusable Components
-- We use directives to create reusable components. A component allows you to hide complex - DOM structure, CSS, and behavior. This lets you focus either on what the application - does or how the application looks separately. -
-Localization
-- An important part of serious apps is localization. Angular's locale aware filters and - stemming directives give you building blocks to make your application available in all - locales. -
-Locale: US
- - -Locale: SK
- -Embed and Inject
-Embeddable
-
- AngularJS works great with other technologies. Add as much or as little of AngularJS to
- an existing page as you like. Many other frameworks require full commitment. This page
- has multiple AngularJS applications embedded in it. Because AngularJS has no global
- state multiple apps can run on a single page without the use of iframes. We
- encourage you to view-source and look around.
-
Injectable
-
- The dependency injection in AngularJS allows you to declaratively describe how your
- application is wired. This means that your application needs no main()
- method which is usually an unmaintainable mess. Dependency injection is also a core to
- AngularJS. This means that any component which does not fit your needs can easily be
- replaced.
-
Testable
-- AngularJS was designed from ground up to be testable. It encourages behavior-view - separation, comes pre-bundled with mocks, and takes full advantage of dependency - injection. It also comes with end-to-end scenario runner which eliminates test flakiness - by understanding the inner workings of AngularJS. -
