I have a number of elements that I want to be visible under certain conditions.

In AngularJS I would write

Use the [hidden] attribute:

[hidden]="!myVar"

Or you can use *ngIf

*ngIf="myVar"

These are two ways to show/hide an element. The only difference is: *ngIf will remove the element from DOM while [hidden] will tell the browser to show/hide an element using CSS display property by keeping the element in DOM.
