In this chapter, we compared and contrasted frameworks versus libraries, Angular versus the server-side MVC frameworks, and Angular versus the other client-side JS MVC frameworks. We also looked at some of the important reasons as to why we should choose Angular. Then, we talked about data binding and why and how it's powerful and consequently leads to reduction of code. Finally, we looked at a few of the naming conventions and how to organize Angular applications.

In the next chapter, we'll learn about advanced Angular concepts such as IoC and filters. You'll also learn how to fetch data using the $http and $resource services.
