Components are a powerful, clean way of organizing your UI code into self-contained, reusable chunks.They:

• ..can represent individual controls/widgets, or entire sections of your application
• ..contain their own view, and usually (but optionally) their own viewmodel
• ..can either be preloaded, or loaded asynchronously (on demand) via AMD or other module systems
• ..can receive parameters, and optionally write back changes to them or invoke callbacks
• ..can be composed together (nested) or inherited from other components
• ..can easily be packaged for reuse across projects
• ..let you define your own conventions/logic for configuration and loading

Observables: In KnockoutJS observables are special type of JavaScript objects that can notify subscribers about changes, and can automatically detect dependencies. Observables helps KnockoutJS to update your UI automatically when the view model changes.
