In software development, AngularJS (commonly referred to as "Angular") is an open source web application JavaScript framework for developing single-page applications.

Description

AngularJS simplifies both the development and the testing of web applications by providing a framework for client-side Model–view–controller (MVC) architecture, along with components commonly used in rich Internet applications.

AngularJS works by first reading the HTML page, which has embedded into it additional custom tag attributes.

Angular interprets those attributes as directives to bind input or output parts of the page to a model that is represented by standard JavaScript variables.

The values of those JavaScript variables can be manually set within the code, or retrieved from static or dynamic JSON resources.

Promises

Promises in AngularJS are provided by the built-in $q service. They provide a way to execute asynchronous functions in series by registering them with a promise object.

Promises have made their way into native JavaScript as part of the ES6 specification. The angular $q service provides an interface that closely resembles this new API so porting code to ES6 should be easy.

See Promise object (JavaScript).
