AngularJS Modules

You might now be wondering, what are modules ?

Let us discuss about modules and their relevance, before seeing more about controllers.

• AngularJS follows the module pattern.

• It segregates our application code into the reusable components.

• This helps to package the complete application code into reusable modules, like we do packaging of server side code.

• It makes development, maintenance and testing of Angular application easier.

• Every module should ideally be in its own js file. Ideally, the file name should match with module name.

For Example :

• Name of Angular Module: app

• Name of js file where the module is defined: app.js

Let us see now look into how modules can be created in AngularJS.

The method angular.module() is used to create a module in AngularJS, as shown below.
