What is Angular?

Who uses Angular?

AngularJS is a framework for building dynamic web apps. It lets you use HTML as your template language and lets you extend HTML's syntax.

  • Nasdaq
  • Fox Sports
  • Tesla
  • Udemy
  • Google (sometimes)

What was wrong with Angular 1?!

  • Scope Inheritance
  • Debugging
  • Dependency Injection (maybe)
  • Directives
  • Anything Else?

 

Components vs Directives

 

Creates it's own view (hierarchy of DOM elements) with attached behaviour Directives add behaviour to an existing DOM element
Only one component can be present per DOM element. Multiple decorators can be placed on a single element.
Shadow view context is the component instance Directives do not introduce new evaluation context
When: create a reusable set of DOM elements of UI with custom behaviour When: write reusable behaviour to supplement existing DOM elements.
