Here the expression is the string literal 'World'. - -Next let's look at a more interesting example, that uses AngularJS to -bind a dynamic expression to our greeting text. - -# Hello AngularJS World! - -This example demonstrates angular's two-way data binding: - -1. Edit the HTML file you created in the "Hello World!" example above. -2. Replace the contents of `<body>` with the code from the __Source__ box below. -3. Refresh your browser window. - -<doc:example> - <doc:source> - Your name: <input type="text" ng-model="yourname" placeholder="World"> - <hr> - Hello {{yourname || 'World'}}! - </doc:source> -</doc:example> - -After the refresh, the page should look something like this: - -<img class="left" src="img/helloworld_2way.png" border="1" > - -These are some of the important points to note from this example: - -* The text input {@link guide/directive directive} - is bound to a model variable called `yourname`. -* The double curly braces notation binds the `yourname` model to the greeting text. - -* You did not need to explicitly register an event listener or define an event handler for events! - -Now try typing your name into the input box, and notice the immediate change to -the displayed greeting. This demonstrates the concept of angular's -{@link guide/dev_guide.templates.databinding bi-directional data binding}. Any changes to the input -field are immediately -reflected in the model (one direction), and any changes to the model are -reflected in the greeting text (the other direction). - - -# Anatomy Of An Angular App - -This section describes the 3 parts of an angular app, and explains how they map to the -Model-View-Controller design pattern: - -## Templates - -Templates, which you write in HTML and CSS, serve as the View. You add elements, attributes, and -markup to HTML, which serve as instructions to the angular compiler. The angular compiler is fully -extensible, meaning that with angular you can build your own declarative language on top of HTML! - - -## Application Logic and Behavior - -Application Logic and Behavior, which you define in JavaScript, serve as the Controller. With -angular (unlike with standard AJAX applications) you don't need to write additional listeners or -DOM manipulators, because they are built-in. This feature makes your application logic very easy to -write, test, maintain, and understand. - - -## Data - -The Model is referenced from properties on {@link guide/scope angular scope objects}. -The data in your model could be Javascript objects, arrays, or primitives, it doesn't matter. What -matters is that these are all referenced by the scope object. - -Angular employs scopes to keep your data model and your UI in sync. Whenever something occurs to -change the state of the model, angular immediately reflects that change in the UI, and vice versa. - -The following illustration shows the parts of an angular application and how they work together: - -<img class="left" src="img/angular_parts.png" border="0" /> - -In addition, angular comes with a set of Services, which have the following properties: - -* The services provided are very useful for building web applications. -* You can extend and add application-specific behavior to services. -* Services include Dependency-Injection, XHR, caching, URL routing, and browser abstraction. - - -# Where To Go Next - -* If you like what you've learned so far, you should definitely check out our awesome {@link -tutorial/ Tutorial}, which walks you through the process of building real apps with AngularJS. - -* For further explanations and examples of the AngularJS concepts presented on this page, see the -{@link guide/index Developer Guide}. - -* For additional hands-on examples of using AngularJS, including more source code that you can -copy and paste into your own pages, take a look through the {@link cookbook/ Cookbook}. +The AngularJS documentation includes the {@link guide/index Developer Guide} covering concepts and the +{@link api/ API Reference} for syntax and usage. |
