    It is like a member variable in our regular coding. In others words, attributes are used to store information to be referenced and used in our lightning component code.

    It will make your lightning component more dynamic.

    Component attributes are like member variables on a class in Apex. They are typed fields that are set on a specific instance of a component, and can be referenced from within the component's markup using an expression syntax. Attributes enable you to make components more dynamic.

    Attribute : It is used to store information to be referenced  in our lightning component code. Attributes on components are like instance variables in objects. It have a name and a type.

    <aura:attribute> tag is used  to add an attribute to the component.

    Example :

    <aura:component>
    <aura:attribute name="message" type="String"/>
    <p>{!'Hello! ' + v.message}</p>
</aura:component>

    Hi Ayush

    Attribute is an lightning component, and used to declare variables in same way as we declare in apex:

    Example: <aura:attribute name="accObj" type="String" description="account Object" access="public" default="{'sobjectType': 'Account', 'Name': '', 'Website': '', 'Phone': '', 'Description': '', 'Industry': ''}" />

    public static Account accObj;
