About

Angular is an open-source single-page web application framework, a successor to AngularJS, developed by Google.

It uses a component-based architecture with a built-in router, and offers a dependency injection system, ahead-of-time compilation, reactive programming (via RxJS or Signals), and support for server-side rendering and static site generation.

Knockout is a JavaScript MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) library that helps developers create rich, desktop-like user interfaces with JavaScript and HTML.

It features declarative bindings between data and UI, observable properties with automatic dependency tracking, computed observables, a built-in templating system, and efficient incremental DOM updates.
