# Template type-checking # Template type checking
## Overview of template type-checking ## Overview of template type checking

Angular currently has three modes of doing this, depending on the value of the `fullTemplateTypeCheck` and `strictTemplates` flags. Just as TypeScript catches type errors in your code, Angular checks the expressions and bindings within the templates of your application and can report any type errors it finds.

* `user.address` is an object with a city property. * `user.address` is an object with a city property.
The compiler will not verify that the value of `user.address.city` is assignable to the city input of the `<map>` component. The compiler does not verify that the value of `user.address.city` is assignable to the city input of the `<map>` component.
