Question

Answer 1

According to Angular Doc:
Since ngBind is an element attribute, it makes the bindings invisible to the user while the page is loading... it's the main difference...

Basically until every dom elements not loaded, we can not see them and because ngBind is attribute on the element, it waits until the doms come into play... more info below

ngBind
- directive in module ng

The ngBind attribute tells AngularJS to replace the text content of the specified HTML element with the value of a given expression, and to update the text content when the value of that expression changes.

Typically, you don't use ngBind directly, but instead you use the double curly markup like {{ expression }} which is similar but less verbose.

It is preferable to use ngBind instead of {{ expression }} if a template is momentarily displayed by the browser in its raw state before AngularJS compiles it. Since ngBind is an element attribute, it makes the bindings invisible to the user while the page is loading.

An alternative solution to this problem would be using the ngCloak directive. visit here

for more info about the ngbind visit this page: https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/directive/ngBind

You could do something like this as attribute, ng-bind:

or do interpolation as below:

{{my.name}}

or this way with ng-cloak attributes in AngularJs:

{{my.name}}

ng-cloak avoid flashing on the dom and wait until all be ready! this is equal to ng-bind attribute...
