Reason for removing the See Also section
I've just removed the See Also section from this article. It linked to Backbone, Ember and Meteor, but as usual with such sections it didn't explain the criteria for inclusion/exclusion. I know these decisions are difficult to pin down without expressing any bias (why Backbone if not Knockout? why Meteor if not Firebase? what is a library vs a framework vs a full stack?) so I suggest we leave this section empty until there is a satisfactory Comparison of Javascript MV* Frameworks article to which we can link. Any objections? - Pointillist (talk) 00:13, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
Attempting to add the following: Directives - Teach the browser new tricks. Someone said that HTML 6 goes under the name of Angular b/c of HTML 6 which may explain just how powerful AngularJS's framework is perceived. Three phases of the bootstrapper.
- Wait for the DOM to load
- Create a new Injector
- Compile Service is like compiling in C or C++. It walks the DOM and locates all the directives like "ng-app".
- Link Phase - The link phase attaches all the directives to scope.

Need to cull the Releases list
The Releases list fails WP:NOTCHANGELOG, I'm afraid:
Changelogs, release histories or release notes. An article about a product may include a prose history of its development and major improvements. Tables or lists of changes should be avoided; instead, significant changes should be merged into – and contextualised in – the product's history. Note that, in addition to being unencyclopedic, lists of changes and releases are also unsuitable for inclusion in Wikipedia articles as they're usually drawn – often verbatim – from primary sources.
I image we'll end up with a short list of major releases, with the key differences summarised. We'll need reliable third party sources for those. Any idea who has covered this who isn't a Google employee or contributor to AngularJS? - Pointillist (talk) 18:54, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
- So... it's been three months. Does nobody object if I simply delete the entire Releases list section? - Pointillist (talk) 14:41, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
- As a random passer-by I object because of the awesomeness of the codenames. One does not simply delete awesomeness. 89.160.94.50 (talk) 15:47, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
- As another passer-by I do not object. Please go ahead. Having pages over pages of irrelevant dates and version numbers is not helpful. I came here to get an idea how angularJS evolved and how relevant it was in its early years but instead I'm confronted with this monster list of nothing? - Giszmo (talk) 19:09, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
Code sample
Should we include a code sample/examples (as on JavaScript#Simple_examples, JQuery#Usage_styles)? I found a simple hello world on http://viralpatel.net/blogs/angularjs-introduction-hello-world-tutorial/ --Aprillion 18:27, 16 April 2014 (UTC)
- Go ahead but I find it does AngularJS no justice to not show controllers. It's an MVC framework and showing only a V with a bit of M is meh. --Giszmo (talk) 19:14, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
