title: Benefit of using ng-container vs. template?
body: <p>In angular we could do:</p>
  
  <pre><code>template: `&lt;ng-container #c&gt;&lt;/ng-container&gt;`
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or:</p>
  
  <pre><code>template: `&lt;template #c&gt;&lt;/template&gt;`
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>To create a view container that is hidden when the template is rendered.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a difference between using <code>ng-container</code> over the html template alternative?  I'm guessing Angular has to have it's own template containers like <code>ng-template</code> or <code>ng-container</code> since use of the raw <code>html</code> template element could break non browser based runtimes, like mobile clients, etc.</p>
