Knockout.js or Angular.js which is better?

Question

Amit Singh · Answer

AngularJS is a structural framework for dynamic web apps. It lets you use HTML as your template language and lets you extend HTML's syntax to express your application's components clearly. It works with plain old JavaScript objects so you don’t need to clutter your code with ‘observables’ (paraphrased) but it doesn’t take long to realise that AngularJS and KnockoutJS aren’t very similar at all. Knockout is a tool for binding your model to the view and automatically updating the view when things change. Angular does this too but it also does much more. In fact Angular is more like a framework for building a Single Page Application (SPA). It implements hashtag routing for different page views and an MVC pattern for wiring up controllers and models. It also has its own modules and dependency injection to help you build an application at enterprise scale. Let’s try to understand with comparing features of AngularJS and KnockoutJS.
