The TypeScript setup includes System.js, a third-party open-source library that adds ES6 module loading functionality to browsers. This step isn't needed for the ES5 version. System requires mapping the code file paths to understand what to be load.

You can think of Angular apps as a tree of components. This root component we've been talking about acts as the top

nothing special about the name and you can use whatever makes sense to you.

The root component's job is to give a location in the <code>index.html</code> file where your application will
|

render through it's element, in this case <code><my-app></code>. There is also nothing special about this
|

element name and you can pick it as you like.

h3 @Component and @View annotations
|
||||
|
||||
p.
|
||||
A component annotation describes details about the component. An annotation can be identified by its at-sign (<code>@</code>).
|
||||
p.
|
||||
The <code>@Component</code> annotation defines the HTML tag for the component by specifying the component's CSS selector.
|
||||
p.
|
||||
The <code>@View</code> annotation defines the HTML that represents the component. The component you wrote uses an inline template, but you can also have an external template. To use an external template, specify a <code>templateUrl</code> property and give it the path to the HTML file.

|

The main difference between the ES5 and TypeScript versions is the loading of modules.

strong TypeScript
|

p.
|
||||
TypeScript supports ES6 module loading syntax. ES6 modules allow for modular loading of JavaScript code. Using ES6 modules you can cherry-pick only what you need for your app.

strong ES5
|
||||
p.
|
||||
In ES5 the script file creates an angular property on the window of the browser. This property contains every piece of Angular core, whether you need it or not.
