JavaScript AngularJS Basics (1.x) Improving Our Todo App Create a Custom Directive For “todos”

Posted by Leon Segal

Why is the instantiated template injected into todos tag, specifically?

I am struggling to see why the instantiated code is specifically injected into the todos tag:

<todos></todos/>

I have tried to see where in the app this is specified, but I am a bit lost.

Anyone able to help?

Thanks

I know that it comes from the directive. It's just that when I changed the tag name to <todo><todo>, then also changed the directive, it didn't work, so it confused me.

When I changed the tag to <something_else></something_else> and also the directive, it then worked.

May be a bug in angular...
