There are so many people who are confused between Angular & AngularJS, here the solution is: AngularJS: AngularJS is javascript based front-end framework for developing SPA. it is originally developed in 2009. Angular: Angular is TypeScript based web framework. it is a complete rewrite of AngularJS. Angular announced in 2014 and first stable version released 2016. Difference between Angular & AngularJS: Angular: Uses components and directives. Components are the directive with a templates. Written in Microsoft's Typescript language, which is a superset of ECMAScript 6 (ES6). Supported by all the popular mobile browsers. properties enclosed in () and [] are used to bind data between view and model. Hierarchical Dependency injection system used. uses @Route Config {(...)} for routing configuration. better structure compare to AngularJS, easier to create and maintain large applications but behind in AngularJS in case of small applications. AngularJS: Support Model-view-controller design. the view processes the information available in the model to generate the output. Written in JavaScript. Does not supported by Mobile browsers. ng-bind is used to bind data from view to model and vice versa it uses $routeprovider.when () for routing configuration. Does not use Dependency Injection. it is less manageable in comparison to Angular.
