Why Angular JS better for web development?

Image description
Angular web development services involve utilizing the Angular framework to build robust, scalable, and feature-rich web applications. Angular offers a structured approach to web development, leveraging TypeScript and a component-based architecture.

AngularJS, often referred to simply as Angular, offers several advantages that make it a preferred choice for web development:

Two-Way Data Binding: AngularJS provides automatic synchronization of data between the model (JavaScript variables) and the view (HTML elements), which reduces boilerplate code and makes it easier to develop real-time applications.

Modular and Extensible: AngularJS uses a modular approach through dependency injection, allowing developers to easily separate concerns and create reusable components. This promotes code maintainability and scalability.

Directives: AngularJS introduces custom HTML directives, extending HTML vocabulary for building dynamic web applications. Directives allow developers to create reusable UI components and enhance code readability.
MVVM Architecture: AngularJS follows the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) architecture, where the model represents data, the view displays the data, and the view model connects the model and view. This separation of concerns improves code organization and enhances testability.

Dependency Injection: AngularJS has a built-in dependency injection system that helps manage dependencies and facilitates testing by making components more modular and easier to mock.

SPA (Single Page Application) Capabilities: AngularJS is well-suited for building SPAs where the entire application runs within a single web page. It provides routing mechanisms and powerful templating features that enable smooth navigation and user interactions.

Community and Ecosystem: AngularJS has a large and active community of developers, which ensures ongoing support, continuous improvement, and availability of third-party libraries, tools, and resources.
Backward Compatibility: AngularJS prioritizes backward compatibility, making it easier for developers to upgrade their applications to newer versions without major code changes.

Overall, AngularJS combines powerful features, a robust architecture, and a supportive community, making it a preferred framework for building modern Web Application Development Services. However, it’s important to note that AngularJS (often referred to as Angular 1.x) has been succeeded by Angular (versions 2 and above), which offers enhanced features and performance improvements.

AngularJS and Angular are 2 different things. AngularJS is about 10 years old. The name was changed name to just 'Angular' after v1 - when it was rewritten in TS, and essentially became a new/different project.
