docs(glossary): general cleanup and fix links (#2100)
* glossary: replace cached by latest before edits
* docs(glossary): general cleanup and fix links
This commit addresses issues with the glossary for all languages (JS, TS, Dart).
Fixes #1123, #1838, #2036.
This was originally started as post-RC5 Dart resync, but since mixing Harp partials with Jade mixins can be problematic, this commit does a general cleanup of the 3 x 2 = 6 glossary files (found in `{ts,js,dart}/latest/{.,guide}`).
This commit builds upon #2098 (which created the first `ts/_cache` copy of the glossary), but doesn't really depend on it.

When unqualified, _annotation_ refers to a Dart [metadata
|
|
|
|
|
annotation][metadata] (as opposed to, say, a type annotation). A metadata
|
|
|
|
|
annotation begins with the character `@`, followed by either a reference
|
|
|
|
|
to a compile-time constant (such as [`Component`](#component)) or a call
|
|
|
|
|
to a constant constructor. See the [Dart Language Guide][metadata] for
|
|
|
|
|
details.

The corresponding term in TypeScript and JavaScript is
|
|
|
|
|
[_decorator_](!{docsPath}/ts/latest/glossary.html#decorator).

We launch an Angular application by "bootstrapping" it with the
|
|
|
|
|
[bootstrap][bootstrap] method. The `bootstrap` method identifies an
|
|
|
|
|
application's top level "root" [Component](#component) and optionally
|
|
|
|
|
registers service [providers](#provider) with the [dependency injection
|
|
|
|
|
system](#dependency-injection).

In this guide, the term _module_ refers to a Dart compilation unit, such
|
|
|
|
|
as a library, or a package. (If a Dart file has no `library` or `part`
|
|
|
|
|
directive, then that file itself is a library and thus a compilation
|
|
|
|
|
unit.) For more information about compilation units, see
|
|
|
|
|
the chapter on "Libraries and Scripts" in the
|
|
|
|
|
[Dart Language Specification](https://www.dartlang.org/docs/spec/).

block routing-component-defn

|

:marked
|
|
|
|
|
A [Component](#component) with an attached router.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In most cases, the component became attached to a [router](#router) by means
|
|
|
|
|
of a `@RouterConfig` #{decorator} that defined routes to views controlled by this component.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The component's template has a `RouterOutlet` element where it can display views produced by the router.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It likely has anchor tags or buttons with `RouterLink` directives that users can click to navigate.

block append snake-case-defn

|
|
|
Library and file names are often spelled in snake_case. Examples include:
|
|
|
|
|
`angular2_tour_of_heroes` and `app_component.dart`.

Zones are a mechanism for encapsulating and intercepting

|
|
|
|
a Dart application's asynchronous activity.
