title: Should I namespace my angular directives?
body: <p>AngularJS defines a <code>ng</code> prefix for its directives like <code>ng-repeat</code>. When I create my own directives is it a best practice to prefix them?</p>
  
  <p>For instance which is better?</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;chat&gt;&lt;/chat&gt;
  or
  &lt;myown-chat&gt;&lt;/myown-chat&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Where <code>myown</code> is my website specific namespace.</p>
  
  <p><strong>[UPDATE]</strong></p>
  
  <p>Now the AngularJS guide suggests to namespace directives <a href="https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/directive#creating-directives" rel="nofollow">https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/directive#creating-directives</a></p>
