MEAN (MongoDB,EmberJS,AngularJS&NodeJS)

MEAN Framework STack

MEAN stands for

• M stands for Mongo DB
• E stands for Express JS
• A stands for Angular JS
• N stands for Node JS

Node JS provides the Server Platform for this stack. 

Mongo DB provides the backend data store(No SQL Database). 

Express provides the Server-side Framework. 

Angular JS provides the Client-side Rramework.

Main advantages of this MEAN Stack is

• Single language for UI to Backend i.e. Java Script
• Single Object Type on all layers i.e. JSON. That means Angular JS supports JSON, Express JS Supports JSON and Mondo DB also support same JSON object to store data.
• Easy to test from UI to Server Logic

Pre-requisites:

a) Basics of HTML5,CSS 3 and Java Script
b) JSON
c) Install Node
d) Install Mongo DB

MEAN Stack Framework Architecture:

Here we write UI Logic by using Angular JS, Server side logic in Express JS, Data store in Mongo DB and Node JS provides server platform.

Mongo DB:

• No SQL Scalable Database 
• Document-based Database
• Supports JSON-like data store

Express JS

• Server-side Web Framework for Node JS

Node JS

• Runs on Google's V8 Engine

Angular JS

• MVC UI Framework
• Two-way data binding
• Cross-Component DI(Dependency Injection)
• Developed by Google
