html is a programming language

Answer 2

A directive is a JavaScript factory function that holds a set of instructions for the html compiler for defining a specified behavior of a DOM element.

The directives that are used in the Angular JS will encapsulate all the behavioral properties along with functionalities that are associated with every element in a semantic way. This helps to keep all the functionalities together.
