In the previous chapter, we saw how to set up the various tools that will aid in building our AngularJS app. In this chapter, we will see how AngularJS lends itself as an excellent tool to create prototypes.

It gives useful and important feedback from users and stakeholders on various aspects of the application, such as user click flows, usability issues, and usefulness of the requirement specifications that were initially outlined.

Now, thanks to AngularJS, building such...
