AngularJS equivalent for Angular ng-container

In cases you have mentioned, you can use ng-repeat-start and ng-repeat-end pair, respectively:

1. Tables with interlaced pairs, triples etc. of cells:

   <table><tr>
     <td ng-repeat-start="item in items">{{ item.a }}</td>
     <td ng-repeat-end>{{ item.b }}</td>
   </tr></table>
   

2. HTML lists:

   <dl>
     <dt ng-repeat-start="item in items">{{ item.term }}</dt>
     <dd ng-repeat-end>{{ item.definition }}</dd>
   </dl>
   

3. Table-like arrangement of data with display:grid:

   <div style="display: grid; grid-template-columns: auto auto">
     <div ng-repeat-start="item in items">{{ item.a }}</div>
     <div>{{ item.b }}</div>
     <div ng-repeat-end>{{ item.c }}</div>
   </div>
