# The Basic
Angular serves the **index.html** in the `src` directory and loads the components from the `src/app` directory.
The scafolding creates a root-component which is loaded into the index.html on the ``-Tag.
In the `@Component` we find a `selector` with the value of ``. With this selector, Angular is able to replace in the index.thml on the ``-Tag with the content in the app.component.html.
When the app is builded, the angular cli will inject at the bottom a bundle of *.js files which is needet to run the app.
`main.ts` is the file which will be executet at the beginning.
Angular's main ideas is to build components to build an app. Each Component has it's own template (html), maybe it's own style (CSS) and more important it's own business logic.
Components can be reused in multiple parts or the application.
## Component
The `app.component` is a special component. It serves to bootstrap all the application and is the root of the application. All the *selectors* for the other components are located now in the `app.component.html`.
Good practice to create a new component, you should create a directory in the app folder and name it the same as the componentname. The convention of naming the component is like this `name.component.ts`.
A component is a class which angular is able to instanciate.
Required files for a component are a `server.component.ts` and a `server.component.html`.
In the *.ts file goes the logic and in the *.html file is the template of the component.
```ts
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; // Import for the Component-Decorator
@Component({ // Decorator
selector: 'app-server', // Unique selector
templateUrl: './server.component.html' // template file
})
export class ServerComponent { // Component-Class
}
```
This register the component and let angular know that a new component was created, it needs to be declared in the root app module (`app.module.ts`). Add it in the `declarations`-array and for TS to find the file, it needs also an import.
By adding the component-Tag to the `app.component.html` the component will be inbedded in the app.
```html
```
A component can be created with the ancular CLI
```bash
# long
ng generate component
# short
ng g c
```
This command will create a new folder and automatically update the `app.module`.
A component can be Nested. *Server* will be moved to the *Servers*. So that in the Dom we finde a wrapper arround the *Server-Component*:
### Selector
Angular have multiple ways to select the component (CSS-Selectors):
- by element ``
- by attribute `[app-server]`
- by class `.app-server`

What is Databinding? Communication between TS-Code (Businessloginc) and the Template (HTML).
