Angularjs table sorting example

Angularjs table sorting:

An orderBy filter is used to sort an Angularjs table. An orderBy is an angularjs filter which is used to orders or sort an array by an expression.

Syntax:

{{ expression | orderBy }}

Example explanation:

The ng-app directive initializes the application. We create a students object which is initialized by ng-init directive using JSON syntax. The ng-repeat directive will work as for-each loop and iterates over students object. The orderBy filter sort the data by student name.

Example:
