When ngAnimate is used, it will defer changes to classes until postDigest. Previously, AngularJS (when ngAnimate is not loaded) would always immediately perform these DOM operations. Now, even when the ngAnimate module is not used, if $rootScope is in the midst of a digest, class manipulation is deferred. This helps reduce jank in browsers such as IE11. BREAKING CHANGE: The $animate class API will always defer changes until the end of the next digest. This allows ngAnimate to coalesce class changes which occur over a short period of time into 1 or 2 DOM writes, rather than many. This prevents jank in browsers such as IE, and is generally a good thing. If you're finding that your classes are not being immediately applied, be sure to invoke $digest(). Closes #8234 Closes #9263
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 helps with server-side communication, taming async callbacks with promises and deferreds. It also makes client-side navigation and deeplinking with hashbang urls or HTML5 pushState a piece of cake. The best of all: it makes development fun!
