+@name Developer Guide: Initializing Angular
+@description
+
+
+Initializing angular consists of loading the `angular.js` script in your page, and specifying how
+angular should process and manage the page. To initialize angular you do the following:
+
+
+* Specify the angular namespace in the `<html>` page
+* Choose which flavor of angular script to load (debug or production)
+* Specify whether or not angular should process and manage the page automatically (`ng:autobind`)
+
+
+The simplest way to initialize angular is to load the angular script and tell angular to compile
+and manage the whole page. You do this as follows:
+
+
+<pre>
+<!doctype html>
+<html xmlns:ng="http://angularjs.org">
+  <head>
+    ...
+  </head>
+  <body>
+    ...
+    <script src="angular.js" ng:autobind>
+  </body>
+</pre>
+
+
+
+
+## Specifying the Angular Namespace
+
+
+        <html xmlns:ng="http://angularjs.org">
+
+
+You need to declare the angular namespace declaration in the following cases:
+
+
+* For all types of browser if you are using XHTML.
+* For Internet Explorer older than version 9 (because older versions of IE do not render widgets
+properly for either HTML or XHTML).
+
+
+
+
+## Creating Your Own Namespaces
+
+
+When you are ready to define your own {@link dev_guide.compiler.widgets widgets}, you must create
+your own namespace in addition to specifying the angular namespace. You use your own namespace to
+form the fully qualified name for widgets that you create.
+
+
+For example, you could map the alias `my` to your domain, and create a widget called `my:widget`.
+To create your own namespace, simply add another `xmlns` tag to your page, create an alias, and set
+it to your unique domain:
+
+
+        <html xmlns:ng="http://angularjs.org" xmlns:my="http://mydomain.com">
+
+
+
+
+## Loading the Angular Bootstrap Script
+
+
+The angular bootstrap script comes in two flavors; a debug script, and a production script:
+
+
+* angular-[version].js - This is a human-readable file, suitable for development and debugging.
+* angular-[version].min.js - This is a compressed and obfuscated file, suitable for use in
+production.
