AngularJS Recipe: Part 1

Introduction

 
AngularJS is a JavaScript structural framework for dynamic web apps. It can be used in a HTML page with a <script> tag. AngularJS extends HTML attributes with Directives and binds data to HTML with Expressions. 
 
To use AngularJs you need to add the following reference to your application.
  1. <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.3.15/angular.min.js"></script>   
Now we will learn AngularJS step-by-step.
 

How AngularJS Extend HTML?

 
When we read about AngularJS we hear many times that AbgularJS extends HTML. It uses ng-directives to extend HTML.

  3. <html    
  4.     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">    
  5.     <head runat="server">    
  6.         <title></title>    
  7.         <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.3.15/angular.min.js"></script>    
  8.     </head>    
  9.     <body>    
  10.         <form id="form1" runat="server">    
  11.             <div ng-app="">    
  12.                 <p>Enter Your Name:      
  13.                     <input type="text" ng-model="Name">    
  14.                     </p>    
  15.                 <p ng-bind="Name"></p>    
  16.             </div>    
  17.         </form>    
  18.     </body>    
  19. </html>   
  1. Here ng-app declares that the application will run under the AngularJS framework.
  2. The ng-model directive binds the value of the input field to the application variable name.
  3. The ng-bind directive binds the innerHTML of the <p> element to the application variable name.

AngularJS Applications with AngularJS Architecture 
  1. AngularJS modules define AngularJS applications.
  2. AngularJS controllers control AngularJS applications.
  3. The ng-app directive defines the application, the ng-controller directive defines the controller.

    When initializing and using take care of case because AngularJS is case sensitive.
