Our app's looking great and working exactly how it should, so let's recap what we've learnt in the first chapter.
To begin with, we saw just how easy it is to get AngularJS and Bootstrap installed with the inclusion of a single JavaScript file and stylesheet. We also looked at how an Angular application is initialized and started building our first application.
The Hello, World app we've created, while being very basic, demonstrates some of Angular's core features:
Expressions
Scopes
Models
Two-way data binding
All of this was possible without writing a single line of JavaScript, as the controller we created was just to demonstrate two-way binding and wasn't a required component of our app.
With Bootstrap, we utilized a few of the many available components such as the jumbotron
and the page-header
classes to give our application some style and substance. We also saw the framework's new mobile first responsive design in action without cluttering up our markup with unnecessary classes or elements.
In Chapter 2, Let's Build with AngularJS and Bootstrap we're going to explore some more AngularJS and Bootstrap fundamentals and introduce the project we're going to be building over the course of this book.
