How do I set the default value of an input textbox in AngularJS so that it can be altered later? I wish to be able to submit the changed value of the textbox(using ng-model) to the server. Would using ng-value to set the initial value of the textbox be the correct approach in this case?

Definition and Usage Note: The default value is the value specified in the HTML value attribute. The difference between the defaultValue and value property, is that defaultValue contains the default value, while value contains the current value after some changes have been made.
The value attribute specifies the value of an <input> element. The value attribute is used differently for different input types: For "button", "reset", and "submit" - it defines the text on the button. For "text", "password", and "hidden" - it defines the initial (default) value of the input field.
For numeric types, the default is 0 , with the exception that for integer or floating-point types declared with the AUTO_INCREMENT attribute, the default is the next value in the sequence.
Use ng-init to set default value for ng-options . Save this answer. Show activity on this post. In my opinion the correct way to set a default value is to simply pre-fill your ng-model property with the value selected from your ng-options , angular does the rest.
Set the ngModel value:
<input type="text" ng-model="myInput" />
$scope.myInput = "Default";
