Is there any difference between ng-repeat or data-ng-repeat in Angularjs?
I believe there are other directives with data prefix as well.
Thanks

The data-ng-repeat allows the HTML to be validated through validators that do not understand Angular. The documentation is here with directives. This is from the docs: Angular normalizes an element's tag and attribute name to determine which elements match which directives.
You can use unique filter while using ng-repeat . If you use track by $index then unique won't work.
You can consider using transclusion inside a custom directive, to achieve the behavior you are looking for without using ng-repeat.
AngularJS ng-repeat Directive The ng-repeat directive repeats a set of HTML, a given number of times. The set of HTML will be repeated once per item in a collection. The collection must be an array or an object. Note: Each instance of the repetition is given its own scope, which consist of the current item.
They are aliases. Angular allows both in order to name a directive. The data-ng-repeat allows the HTML to be validated through validators that do not understand Angular.

This is from the docs:
Angular normalizes an element's tag and attribute name to determine which elements match which directives. We typically refer to directives by their case-sensitive camelCase normalized name (e.g. ngModel). However, since HTML is case-insensitive, we refer to directives in the DOM by lower-case forms, typically using dash-delimited attributes on DOM elements (e.g. ng-model).
And all these are valid:
<span ng-bind="name"></span> <br/> <span ng:bind="name"></span> <br/> <span ng_bind="name"></span> <br/> <span data-ng-bind="name"></span> <br/> <span x-ng-bind="name"></span> <br/> AFAIK, you can use these naming conventions in any directive that Angular parses.
