Summary

Getting MEAN, Second Edition teaches you how to develop full-stack web applications using the MEAN stack. This edition was completely revised and updated to cover MongoDB 4, Express 4, Angular 7, Node 11, and the latest mainstream release of JavaScript ES2015.

Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.

About the Technology

Juggling languages mid-application can radically slow down a full-stack web project. The MEAN stack?MongoDB, Express, Angular, and Node?uses JavaScript end to end, maximizing developer productivity and minimizing context switching. And you'll love the results! MEAN apps are fast, powerful, and beautiful.

About the Book

Getting MEAN, Second Edition teaches you how to develop full-stack web applications using the MEAN stack. Practical from the very beginning, the book helps you create a static site in Express and Node. Expanding on that solid foundation, you'll integrate a MongoDB database, build an API, and add an authentication system. Along the way, you'll get countless pro tips for building dynamic and responsive data-driven web applications!

What's inside

MongoDB 4, Express 4, Angular 7, and Node.js 11
MEAN stack architecture
Mobile-ready web apps
Best practices for efficiency and reusability

About the Reader

Readers should be comfortable with standard web application designs and ES2015-style JavaScript.

About the Author

Simon Holmes and Clive Harber are full-stack developers with decades of experience in JavaScript and other leading-edge web technologies.
