smart-float is an HTML attribute. It does not "sound" like C++. Maybe you should learn HTML5 first?

Why this is the top comment is beyond me. This is whining.

Except that it appears to be an angular directive...?

What do you think an Angular directive is?

It is a DOM marker (HTML attribute, element, class or comment) with behavior (JavaScript) tied to it.

Angular lets you create your own HTML attributes. That's what a directive is.
