Hello {{'World'}}!
This is the sequence that your code should follow if you bootstrap angular on your own: 1. After the page is loaded, find the root of the HTML template, which is typically the root of the document. 2. Run angular's {@link dev_guide.compiler Angular HTML compiler}, which converts a template into an executable, bi-directionally bound application. ## Related Topics * {@link dev_guide.bootstrap Initializing Angular} * {@link dev_guide.bootstrap.auto_bootstrap Automatic Initialization} * {@link dev_guide.compiler Angular HTML compiler} ## Related API {@link api/angular.compile Compiler API}
