It works with the -long-established technologies of the web (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) to make the development of web -apps easier and faster than ever before. - -One important way that angular simplifies web development is by increasing the level of abstraction -between the developer and most low-level web app development tasks. Angular automatically takes -care of many of these tasks, including: - -* DOM Manipulation -* Setting Up Listeners and Notifiers -* Input Validation - -Because angular handles much of the work involved in these tasks, developers can concentrate more -on application logic and less on repetitive, error-prone, lower-level coding. - -At the same time that angular simplifies the development of web apps, it brings relatively -sophisticated techniques to the client-side, including: - -* Separation of data, application logic, and presentation components -* Data Binding between data and presentation components -* Services (common web app operations, implemented as substitutable objects) -* Dependency Injection (used primarily for wiring together services) -* An extensible HTML compiler (written entirely in JavaScript) -* Ease of Testing - -These techniques have been for the most part absent from the client-side for far too long. - -## Single-page / Round-trip Applications - -You can use angular to develop both single-page and round-trip apps, but angular is designed -primarily for developing single-page apps. Angular supports browser history, forward and back -buttons, and bookmarking in single-page apps. - -You normally wouldn't want to load angular with every page change, as would be the case with using -angular in a round-trip app. However, it would make sense to do so if you were adding a subset of -angular's features (for example, templates to leverage angular's data-binding feature) to an -existing round-trip app. You might follow this course of action if you were migrating an older app -to a single-page angular app. |
