It breaks up large chunks of code into components, which make it significantly easier to edit code you&#8217;ve already written.<\/p>\n<h3>Does it have any cool features?<\/h3>\n<p>It does! Here are a few:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Directives: this is embraced by Angular, and it allows the programmer to essentially create their own HTML tags. This could potentially be very useful and save a lot of time with reusing code.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">In-line Angular: JavaScript can be used directly in HTML, but it is pretty restricted. Angular opens the door for seamless integration of JavaScript into HTML, even allowing the use of for loops.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">MVC: Angular embraces the MVC (Model View Controller) organization system for programming, and the components make that even easier to implement.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Is it worth using?<\/h3>\n<p>We&#8217;ll find out in the next blog post!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is it?
