Creating Angular Application & module installation:

Step 1: Create an Angular application using the following command.
```
ng new appname
```
Step 2: After creating your project folder i.e. appname, move to it using the following command.
```
cd appname
```

Step 3: Install PrimeNG in your given directory.

npm install primeng --save
npm install primeicons --save

Project Structure: It will look like the following.

Example 1: This basic example illustrates the use of the RadioButton component without a preselected value.

app.component.html

<h2>GeeksforGeeks</h2>
<h5>PrimeNG RadioButton component</h5>
<div class="p-field-radiobutton">
  <p-radioButton value="AngularJS" 
                   [(ngModel)]=" gfg" 
                 inputId=" gfg1">
  </p-radioButton>
  <label for=" gfg1">AngularJS</label>
</div>
<div class="p-field-radiobutton">
  <p-radioButton value="ReactJS" 
                 [(ngModel)]=" gfg" 
                 inputId=" gfg2">
  </p-radioButton>
  <label for=" gfg2">ReactJS</label>
</div>
<div class="p-field-radiobutton">
  <p-radioButton value="HTML" 
                 [(ngModel)]=" gfg" 
                 inputId="gfg3">
  </p-radioButton>
  <label for="gfg3">HTML</label>
</div>
<div class="p-field-radiobutton">
  <p-radioButton value="JavaScript" 
                 [(ngModel)]=" gfg" 
                 inputId=" gfg4">
  </p-radioButton>
  <label for=" gfg4">JavaScript</label>
</div>

app.component.ts

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html'
})
export class AppComponent {
  gfg: string;
}

app.module.ts

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } 
    from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } 
    from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { RadioButtonModule } from 'primeng/radiobutton';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    BrowserAnimationsModule,
    RadioButtonModule,
    FormsModule
  ],
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {}

Output:

Example 2: In this example, we are building a radioButton Group dynamically with the pre-selected value.

app.component.html

<h2>GeeksforGeeks</h2>
<h5>PrimeNG RadioButton Component</h5>
<div *ngFor="let a of gfg" class="p-field-checkbox">
  <p-radioButton [value]="a" [(ngModel)]="selected">
  </p-radioButton>
  <label [for]="a.key">{{a.name}}</label>
</div>

app.component.ts

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html'
})
export class AppComponent {
  selected: any = null;

  gfg: any[] = [
    { name: 'A' },
    { name: 'B' },
    { name: 'C' },
    { name: 'D' },
    { name: 'E' }
  ];

  ngOnInit() {
    this.selected = this.gfg[0];
  }
}

app.module.ts

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } 
    from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } 
    from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { RadioButtonModule } from 'primeng/radiobutton';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    BrowserAnimationsModule,
    RadioButtonModule,
    FormsModule
  ],
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {}
