I've never heard anybody mention Angular and Web Components as solving the same problem. I'm pretty fuzzy on front end MVC stuff in general, but I know almost nothing about Web Components. Do you know of any good tutorials or resources?

For comparison to Angular, see http://angularjs.org/ Create components section or http://docs.angularjs.org/guide/directive .

Reusable components along with two-way data binding are the most important features of Angular. Web Components does components in a more product neutral, standardized way with a nicer API. Creating custom directives for elements in AngularJS is a pain.

Angular will utilize web components when they become a standard. Think of directives in Angular as a polyfill for web components.
