## What it is
A Django library that integrates AngularJS with Django Forms, enabling client-side form validation driven by server-side form declarations. It provides directives for uploading form data to endpoints and rendering server-side validation errors in AngularJS applications.

## Use cases
- validate Django forms on the client with AngularJS
- submit Django forms via AJAX to a server endpoint
- render server-side form errors inline in an AngularJS app
- render Django forms with Bootstrap 3 styling
- validate a set of forms against one shared endpoint

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy Django + AngularJS 1.x codebase that already uses this library
- you need server-declared validation constraints mirrored in client-side AngularJS form validation

## When to avoid
- starting any new project, since AngularJS is deprecated and the README recommends django-formset instead
- your frontend uses modern Angular, React, or Vue rather than AngularJS 1.x
- you only need a REST API layer, where djangorestframework is a better fit
