What does bootstrap mean in angular js tutorial?

Question

The textbook contains a link to the term self-tuning, but when I search for the term, I see a link to the framework via twitter. Are they talking about something specific, like this, or something more general?

Answer 1

This is a general term. This upper definition is as follows.

A method of downloading a program to a computer using a few initial instructions that allow you to enter the rest of the program from an input device.

In short, this is a way to start by loading the outline of a set of programs, and then pull out other dependencies to get started with this program / framework (in your case, the angularjs project).

And I didn't look at the Google documentation (unless you look at the code school, and they don't seem to be related to twitters bootstrap at all).

This question seems to be discussing it in detail , the definition is related to "pulling out one of their boot files"

Answer 2

In a very simple form, you can understand this as initializing or starting your Angular application.

wiki says

In the general case, bootstrapping usually refers to starting a self-sustaining process that should operate without external input. In computer technology, the term (usually shortened to boot) usually refers to the process of loading basic software into the computer’s memory after turning on the power or general reset, especially the operating system, which will then take care of loading other software as necessary ....... ..

"Another use of the term bootstrapping is to use the compiler to compile yourself by first writing a small part of the compiler of a new programming language in an existing language to compile more programs of a new compiler written in a new language."
