// Binds property value to the result of expression firstName.
//
// Binds attribute role to the result of expression myAriaRole.
//
// Binds the presence of the CSS class extra-sparkle on the element to the truthiness of the
// expression isDelightful.
//
// Binds style property width to the result of expression mySize in pixels. Units are optional.
//
// Calls method readRainbow when a click event is triggered on this button element (or its
// children) and passes in the event object.
//
// Binds a property to an interpolated string, for example, "Hello Seabiscuit".
// Equivalent to:
//
// Binds text content to an interpolated string, for example, "Hello Seabiscuit".
//
Hello {{ponyName}}
// Sets up two-way data binding. Equivalent to:
//
// Creates a local variable movieplayer that provides access to the video element instance in
// data-binding and event-binding expressions in the current template.
//
//
//
// The * symbol turns the current element into an embedded template.
// Equivalent to: ...
// ...
// Transforms the current value of expression cardNumber via the pipe called myCardNumberFormatter.
// Card No.: {{cardNumber | myCardNumberFormatter}}
// The safe navigation operator (?) means that the employer field is optional and if undefined,
// the rest of the expression should be ignored.
// Employer: {{employer?.companyName}}
// An SVG snippet template needs an svg: prefix on its root element to disambiguate the SVG
// element from an HTML component.

// Allows you to assign styles to an HTML element using CSS. You can use CSS directly, as in the
