What is Angular and Why Angular?

What is Angular and Why Angular?

Angular (2/4/5) is not a programming language like Javascript or Typescript. Angular is a front-end or client-side Framework, which needs a programming language like Typescript (developed by Microsoft). 

Now, what does it mean when one says, "Angular is a client-side framework"? It means that it runs on the client-side or user's browser and not on a Web Server (where java/python/ruby/vb.net run). 

Of course, there is the Angular Universal which allows Angular to run on a server; but, primarily, angular is a client-side framework. Angular is a product developed and maintained by the techie giant Google and has adopted the SPA (Single Page Application) principles.
