I'm relatively new to Angular and have very little experience with JQuery, so whatever insight/advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

My goal is to build a dynamic Pinterest-style layout that filters on the fly as users type in their query. I've managed to hack together something moderately functional here:


[Note: this is based on the excellent work done by Ben Holland here

I essentially have two questions about the marriage of Angular & JQuery:

  1. I have most of the app logic running in the controller, but I'm guessing a better way to achieve this would be via a directive?

  2. Is there a way to do this without using Jquery and just using Angular's new animation features?

Thanks again for any guidance you can offer.
