## What it is
AngularJS is a JavaScript MVW framework that extends HTML with directives and provides two-way data binding, dependency injection, and client-side routing for building single-page web applications. Official support ended in January 2022; the actively developed successor lives at angular.io.

## Use cases
- build a single-page web application with two-way data binding
- extend HTML with custom directives and components
- maintain a legacy AngularJS 1.x codebase
- structure a client-side app with dependency injection and MVC patterns
- add client-side routing and deep linking to a web app

## When to choose
- you are maintaining or migrating an existing AngularJS 1.x application
- you need a mature, well-documented framework for a legacy browser environment
- you are learning how classic SPA frameworks work

## When to avoid
- starting any new project - it is end-of-life with no security patches
- you want long-term support or modern tooling - use Angular, React, or Vue instead
- your app needs modern JavaScript features or TypeScript-first development
