- JavaScript globals
- DOM selectors
03
Example public indicators for Angular
Illustrative indicators derived from public catalog metadata for Angular. A live scan may match additional proprietary rules beyond these examples.
- getAllAngularRootElements
- getAngularTestability
- ng.coreTokens
- ng.probe

What a detection means
- Establishes
- One or more public signals on the scanned page matched a known Angular signature (5 rules) at the time of the scan.
- Does not establish
- A sitewide install of Angular, an active vendor contract, exclusive use, or that Angular is still in place today.

How to check a site for Angular
- 1. Enter the website URL in the scan form — homepage, pricing, checkout, or login pages usually expose the strongest Angular signals.
- 2. PluginView reads only public responses (javascript globals, dom selectors) and scores them against the Angular signature set (5 rules).
- 3. Review the confidence score and text explanation for Angular on the results page.
