Angular Basics to start with...in Salesforce

This post expalins few basic angular directives and binding concepts to start with. Use contact id in the URL. For example,

https://c.na24.visual.force.com/apex/AngularBasics?Id=0031a000001YveQ

Visualforce Page: AngularBasics
<apex:page applybodytag="false" doctype="html-5.0" showheader="false" standardstylesheets="false" standardController="Contact">
<!--
applybodytag[DEFAULT this to false]: 
A Boolean value that specifies whether or not Visualforce should automatically add a <body> tag to the generated HTML output. Set to false to disable adding the <body> tag to the response.
For example, when the <body> tag is statically set in your markup. If not specified, this value defaults to the value of the applyHtmlTag attribute if it's set, or true, if applyHtmlTag isn't set.

applyHtmlTag:
A Boolean value that specifies whether or not Visualforce should automatically add an <html> tag to the generated HTML output. 
Set to false to disable adding the <html> tag to the response, for example, when the <html> tag is statically set in your markup. If not specified, this value defaults to true.

doctype[DEFAULT this to html-5.0]:
The HTML document type definition (DTD), or doctype, that describes the structure of the rendered page. If not specified, this value defaults to "html-4.01-transitional", which results in a doctype of . 
Possible values for this attribute include "html-4.01-strict", "xhtml-1.0-transitional", "xhtml-1.1-basic", and "html-5.0", among others.

showheader[DEFAULT this to false]:
A Boolean value that specifies whether the Salesforce tab header is included in the page. If true, the tab header is displayed. If not specified, this value defaults to true.

standardStylesheets[DEFAULT this to false]:
A Boolean value that specifies whether the standard Salesforce stylesheets are added to the generated page header if the showHeader attribute is set to false.
If set to true, the standard stylesheets are added to the generated page header. If not specified, this value defaults to true.
By setting this to false, components that require Salesforce.com CSS may not display correctly, and their styling may change between releases.
