FOAM is a general-purpose modeling system. Angular is GUI library.

FOAM is cross-platform, currently supporting Javascript, Swift/iOS, and Java/Android. Angular is for Javascript (or TypeScript or Dart, which compile to Javascript).

When used with Javascript, FOAM supports both DOM and Canvas with a unified programming model. Angular supports DOM.

When used with Javascript, FOAM supports both client and server. Angular is client only.

FOAM data-binding is O(# of changes). Angular (1.x) is O(# of bindings). This allows FOAM to handle tens of thousands of two-way data-bindings efficiently.

FOAM has a comprehensive Data Access Object (DAO) layer.

Both FOAM and Angular support dependency management.

Both FOAM and Angular support HTML templates.
