I have a backbone application. However AngularJS looks great, a lot less code needed and it seems much easier to manage so I would like to try porting it accross.
One thing I am not clear on.
I have many models for storing data in Backbone. For example @model.set(foo: "bar") which I find really useful for my application I can compare models etc... over write.
What is the best way to store data in Angular? Does a scope behave like a model?
Angular is model agnostic, you can use Plain Old JavaScript Objects. Or create .get .set functions with the functionality you want!
A scope does not behave like a model, a scope is where the model lives (instantiated/altered/read from etc.).
