								  ## Template expression operators
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
									
								 | 
							
							
								  The template expression language employs a subset of Dart syntax supplemented with a few special operators
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
									
								 | 
							
							
								  for specific scenarios. We'll cover two of these operators: _pipe_ and _Elvis_.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
									
								 | 
							
							
								.callout.is-helpful
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 |

							 | 
							
								
									
								 | 
							
							
								  header Dart difference: ?. is a Dart operator
							 |

								  :marked
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
									
								 | 
							
							
								    The Elvis operator (`?.`) is part of the Dart language.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
									
								 | 
							
							
								    It's considered a template expression operator because
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
									
								 | 
							
							
								    Angular 2 supports `?.` even in TypeScript and JavaScript apps.
