AngularJS Templates

Making AngularJS and Django play nicely together requires redefining Angular's template tag. We will follow the tutorial in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8FRBGTJ020 ...which features code from [this repository|https://github.com/gkappel/demo-d201305/blob/master/demo/static/js/demo.js]

/* AngularJS app definition */
var shopping = angular.module('shopping',['ngCookies']);

shopping.config(function($interpolateProvider) {
    //allow django templates and angular to co-exist
    $interpolateProvider.startSymbol('{[{');
    $interpolateProvider.endSymbol('}]}');
});

// define controllers, factories, etc below...
