This lesson

This lesson teaches Isolate scope: the concepts, APIs, and habits you need before advancing in AngularJS.

Scope is the heart of AngularJS 1.x—prototype inheritance and isolate scopes trip up maintainers daily.

You will apply Isolate scope in contexts like: Long-lived intranet apps, government portals, and codebases not yet moved to Angular, React, or Vue.

Write JavaScript for AngularJS 1.8, click Run—register modules/controllers, then mountApp(moduleName, templateHtml) in #ng-app; printOutput feeds the terminal.

When hooks, state, and effects from intermediate lessons are familiar.

Isolate scope creates a directive boundary with @, =, and & bindings to parent scope.
