<div>
I actually only introduce the topic of Angular since I wanted to learn Angular myself. It would be the front end of the WordPress site.<br />
<br />
But, it sounds like I am trying to solve to many problems and should stick with PHP and make my new functionality simply into another PHP page.<br />
<br />
So, PHP is the server side. I assume the page would be HTML, CSS, Bootstrap and PHP.<br />
<br />
Does the use of PHP mean JavaScript is not used? Or wold JavaScript and JavaScript library's and plug-ins still be just as much needed on a PHP page?<br />
<br />
Thanks.

WordPress, Plug-ins, PHP, HTML, CSS and Angular 4??<br />
<br />
I need to create a new UI on a WordPress site and want to use Angular. I am not a PHP developer, but would consider using PHP if it made this UI something I could more easily package into a WordPress plug-in.<br />
<br />
I am a bit confused about how PHP fits into the equation.<br />
<br />
Also, when I need to supplement this new UI with a back-end, is PHP the technology I use to communicate with the WordPress site?<br />
<br />
Please explain my options.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a language used for describing the look and formatting of a document written in a markup language. Usually used to change web pages and user interfaces written in HTML, it can also be applied to any kind of XML document. CSS is designed primarily to distinguish the content of a document from its presentation.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the main markup language for creating web pages and other information to be displayed in a web browser, providing both the structure and content for what is sent from a web server through the use of tags. The current implementation of the HTML specification is HTML5.

PHP is a widely-used server-side scripting language especially suited for web development, powering tens of millions of sites from Facebook to personal WordPress blogs. PHP is often paired with the MySQL relational database, but includes support for most other mainstream databases. By utilizing different Server APIs, PHP can work on many different web servers as a server-side scripting language.

WordPress is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) based on PHP and MySQL for creating websites and blogs. Features include a plugin architecture, a template system and strong management, customization and search systems; through its dynamic presentation of content, webmasters have the flexibility to create websites easily.

Angular is a JavaScript open-source web application framework used to develop single-page applications. It aims to simplify both the development and the testing of such applications by providing a framework for client-side model–view–controller (MVC) and model–view–view-model (MVVM) architectures, along with components commonly used in rich Internet applications. Angular is the front-end part of the MEAN stack, together with Node.js runtime, Express.js backend framework and MongoDB database.
