-Because of decoupling of DOM manipulation from application logic it is very easy to use.
-It is excellent for single-page applications (SPA).
-With features such as directives, filters and automatic data bindings, the developers don’t need to write hundreds of lines of code for simple features, thus making the code more manageable. | -Rapid development where the applications need to undergo quick and frequent changes.
-Latency sensitive – Ideal for applications where page load time matters.
-Enterprises which are looking to improve developer productivity; Using the package management system called NPM, it is possible with Node.js to merge web and backend teams into one unit.

-The architecture is MVW (Model-View-Whatever). It can also support other patterns such as Model-View-Controller or Model-View-View Mode.
-It provides support for Dependency Injection and Direct DOM manipulation. | -The architecture is MVC (Model-View-Controller). It can also support other patterns such as Model-View-Presenter or Actors. |
-Supports Object-oriented, Functional and Event-driven programming paradigms.
-Offers support for Dart, CoffeeScript and TypeScript Scripting languages.
-Does not offer any official IDE Support and IDE field use validation. | -Supports Event-driven, Object-oriented, Functional, Concurrency Oriented, Pub/Sub programming paradigms.
-Offers support for Ruby, CoffeeScript and TypeScript Scripting languages.
-Offers official IDE Support. |
-It manipulates DOM.
-It allows writing custom HTML declarations.
-It manages state of model(s).
-It integrates seamlessly with other UI tools. | -It Communicates with databases, web-sockets, middle-ware etc.
-It Serves servers web. |
-For ensuring cross-browser compatibility, you need to implement features differently – however, the directive (aka HTML extensions) take care of the differences. Note that AnugularJS ver. 1.3 and above has dropped the support for IE8 so if your application requires support for that, you should not consider AngularJS.
-Cross platform native mobile applications or Hybrid apps development is possible with Trigger.io, Cordova or Phonegap integration. One can also use Ionic framework.
-For developing mobile sites, one can use AngularJS responsive modules such as angular-responsive or angular-deckgrid, UI Bootstrap, AngularJS responsive directives, angular-gestures or the ngTouch library. | In NodeJS, this kind of advantages like AngularJS is not available. |
-Unit testing of the AngularJS applications is very easy.
-It supports all the facets of automated testing like unit, integration and functional testing.
-It comes with its own test runner called Karma which facilitates unit testing.
-For end-to-end testing, Protractor can be used. Protractor runs tests against the application running in a real browser, interacting with it as a user would. | In NodeJS, this kind of advantages like AngularJS is not available. |
