The documentation on context is incorrect and misleading: 1. "Angular expressions must use $window explicitly to refer to the global `window` object": expressions cannot access `$window` 1. The example doesn't actually attempt to use $window in a expression. It's in a function called from an expression, which incorrectly implies to readers that: 1. functions ARE expressions 1. functions called by expressions can't access `window` Here's [a plunkr](http://plnkr.co/edit/Gd4xAV?p=preview) to make both these issues clear. This change fixes the errors and informs the reader about Angular's `$window` etc services, and adds an explicit example of an expression not being able to access `window`.
AngularJS 
AngularJS lets you write client-side web applications as if you had a smarter browser. It lets you use good old HTML (or HAML, Jade and friends!) as your template language and lets you extend HTML’s syntax to express your application’s components clearly and succinctly. It automatically synchronizes data from your UI (view) with your JavaScript objects (model) through 2-way data binding. To help you structure your application better and make it easy to test, AngularJS teaches the browser how to do dependency injection and inversion of control. Oh yeah and it also helps with server-side communication, taming async callbacks with promises and deferreds; and makes client-side navigation and deeplinking with hashbang urls or HTML5 pushState a piece of cake. The best of all: it makes development fun!
