Dart's Web Component vs Angular's Directive

Dart's Web Component and Angular's Directives look like they serve very similar purposes. Are there any significant differences?

They serve similar purposes indeed. However Web Components are not a part of Dart, they are a part of browsers. Dart Web-UI does use Web Components (http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-components-intro-20130606/). AngularJS has plans to use them for 2.0 as can be read here: http://www.2ality.com/2013/05/web-components-angular-ember.html

What it comes down to is that a lot of the functionality is shared. But Angular.js has a pure JS implementation and Darts' Web-UI uses browser techniques.

Angular will use the underlying web platform features available to it 
(e.g. Node.bind, template integration, Custom Elements, etc...)
