Scope in AngularJS is the binding part of HTML view and JavaScript controller. When you add properties into the scope object in the JavaScript controller, only then the HTML view gets access to those properties. There are two types of Scope in AngularJS. 
 

  • $Scope
  • $rootScope


Scope: There is few specific features in Scope those are listed below 
 

  • The HTML view
  • The data which is available for the current view known as Model
  • The JavaScript function that makes/changes/removes/controls the data known as Controller.
