Why is the namespace called "ng"? - -Because HTML has angular brackets and "ng" sounds like "angular". - -### Is <angular/> an HTML5 tag? - -No, <angular/> is not an HTML5 tag. angular is an orthogonal project to HTML5; you can use the two -together. - -### Is angular a {library, framework, DOM manipulation library, widget library, native plugin}? - -No, angular is none of these. You don't call its functions, it does not call your functions, -it does not provide a way to manipulate DOM, but does provide primitives to create UI projections -of your data. There are lots of existing widget libraries which you can integrate with angular. -It is 100% JavaScript, 100% client side and compatible with both desktop and mobile browsers. - -### Do I need to worry about security holes in angular? - -Like with any technology, angular is not impervious to attack. angular does, however, provide -built-in protection from basic security holes including cross-site scripting and HTML injection -attacks. angular does round-trip escaping on all strings for you. - -### Can I download the source, build, and host the angular environment locally? - -Yes. See instructions in {@link intro.downloading downloading}. - -### Is angular a templating system? - -At the highest level, angular does look like a just another templating system. But there is one -important reason why angular templating system is different and makes it very good fit for -application development: bidirectional data binding. The template is compiled on the browser and -the compilation step produces a live view. This means you, the developer, don't need to write -code to constantly sync the view with the model and the model with the view as in other -templating systems. - -### What browsers does angular work with? - -Webkit-based browsers (Safari, Chrome, iPhone, Android, WebOS, BlackBerry 6), Firefox, IE6 and -above. Note that CSS only works on IE7 and above. - -### What's angular's performance like? - -angular takes ~300ms to load, render, and compile. In Chrome it uses about 2-5MB of memory. Your -app's performance will vary depending on how many bindings you use. - -### How big is the angular bootstrap JS file that I need to include? - -The size of the library itself is < 50KB compressed and obfuscated. - -### Can I use the open-source Closure Library with angular? - -Yes, you can use widgets from the {@link http://code.google.com/closure/library Closure Library} -in angular. - -### Does angular use the jQuery library? - -Yes, angular uses {@link http://jquery.com/ jQuery}, the open source DOM manipulation library. -If jQuery is not present in your script path, angular falls back on its own implementation of -{@link angular.element jQuery lite}. If jQuery is present in the path, angular uses it to -manipulate the DOM. - -### What is testability like in angular? - -Very testable. It has an integrated dependency injection framework. See -{@link angular.service service} for details. - -### How can I learn more about angular? - -Watch the July 28, 2010 talk -"{@link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elvcgVSynRg| Angular: A Radically Different Way of Building AJAX Apps}". - -### How is angular licensed? - -The MIT License. |
