Abstract

MEAN stands for MongoDb, Express, AngularJS and Node. Node is the basis of the stack. Express supplies a comfortable entrance to HTTP. AngularJS serves the client with the help of an MVC Pattern (Model View Controller). MongoDB is a document-oriented NoSQL database, which can deal directly with JSON data. Everything together illustrates a complete server and client page environment on the basis of JavaScript. Certainly, there’s way more to it in practice.
