I have come across a method to avoid page refresh after form submission i.e event.preventDefault(); Being very new to Angular I really don't know how to put this syntax in my Angular controller, Is event an Angular service? How to use it in the code?

Any help would be appreciated!

On every angular user interface events like ng-keyup ng-click etc you have access to $event object. f.ex ng-click=myClickHandler($event, otherData). you can call preventDefault on that $event object.
