Microsyntax

Microsyntax in Angular allows you to write <div *ngFor="let item of items">{{item}}</div> instead of <ng-template ngFor [ngForOf]="items"><div>{{item}}</div></ng-template.

Constraints

The microsyntax must:

• be know ahead of time so that IDEs can parse it without knowing what is the underlying semantics of the directive or what directives are present.
• must translate to key-value attributes in the DOM.
