What's the difference between BrowserModule and platformBrowserDynamic?

Question

What are the purposes of these two modules?

import { BrowserModule } from \'@angular/platform-browser\';
import { platformBrowserDynamic } from \'@angular/platfo         


        

Answer 1

Angular Modules help organize an application into cohesive blocks of functionality.

Root module needs to import the BrowserModule from @angular/platform-browser to the imports array.

BrowserModule registers critical application service providers. It also includes common directives like NgIf and NgFor which become immediately visible and usable in any of this modules component templates.

QuickStart application is a web application that runs in a browser which involves this Browser Module

PlatformBrowserDynamic - contains the client side code that processes templates
