The book begins by demystifying the MEAN architecture. You'll take a look at the features of the JavaScript libraries, technologies, and frameworks that make up a MEAN stack. With this book, you'll not only learn how to develop highly scalable, asynchronous, and event-driven APIs quickly with Express and Node.js, but you'll also be able put your full-stack skills to use by building two full-fledged MEAN applications from scratch. You'll understand how to build a blogging application using the MEAN stack and get to grips with user authentication using MEAN. As you progress through the chapters, you'll explore some old and new features of Angular, such as pipes, reactive forms, modules and optimizing apps, animations and unit testing, and much more. By the end of the book, you'll get ready to take control of the MEAN stack and transform into a full-stack JavaScript developer, developing efficient web applications using Javascript technologies. What you will learn Understand the MEAN architecture Create RESTful APIs to complete CRUD tasks Build a blogging application with basic features Describe best practices to secure node applications Implement authentication and authorization Creating simple animations using Angular Perform unit testing on Angular applications Who this book is for If you are a beginner or intermediate frontend developer who wants to become full-stack JavaScript developer, this book is ideal for you. You'll need some prior exposure to MongoDB as we skim over its basics before getting straight to work.

Node.js, MongoDB and Angular Web Development The definitive guide to using the MEAN stack to build web applications Node.js is a leading server-side programming environment, MongoDB is the most popular NoSQL database, and Angular is the leading framework for MVC-based front-end development. Together, they provide an easy-to-implement, fully integrated web development stack that allows web programmers to create high-performance sites and applications built completely in JavaScript, from server to client. Updated for Angular 2, Angular 4, and subsequent versions, this new edition of Node.js, MongoDB and Angular Web Development shows you how to integrate these three technologies into complete working solutions. It begins with concise, crystal-clear tutorials on each technology and then quickly moves on to building common web applications. You’ll learn how to use Node.js and MongoDB to build more scalable, high-performance sites, how to leverage Angular’s innovative MVC approach to structure more effective pages and applications, and how to use all three together to deliver outstanding next-generation Web solutions. Implement a highly scalable and dynamic web server using Node.js and Express Implement a MongoDB data store for your web applications Access and interact with MongoDB from Node.js JavaScript code Learn the basics of TypeScript Define custom Angular directives that extend the HTML language Build server-side web services in JavaScript Implement client-side services that can interact with the Node.js web server Build dynamic browser views that provide rich user interaction Add authenticated user accounts and nested comment components to your web applications and pages Contents at a Glance Part I: Getting Started 1 Introducing the Node.js-to-Angular Stack 2 JavaScript Primer Part II: Learning Node.js 3 Getting Started with Node.js 4 Using Events, Listeners, Timers, and Callbacks in Node.js 5 Handling Data I/O in Node.js 6 Accessing the File System from Node.js 7 Implementing HTTP Services in Node.js 8 Implementing Socket Services in Node.js 9 Scaling Applications Using Multiple Processors in Node.js 10 Using Additional Node.js Modules Part III: Learning MongoDB 11 Understanding NoSQL and MongoDB 12 Getting Started with MongoDB 13 Getting Started with MongoDB and Node.js 14 Manipulating MongoDB Documents from Node.js 15 Accessing MongoDB from Node.js 16 Using Mongoose for Structured Schema and Validation 17 Advanced MongoDB Concepts Part IV: Using Express to Make Life Easier 18 Implementing Express in Node.js 19 Implementing Express Middleware Part V: Learning Angular 20 Jumping into TypeScript 21 Getting Started with Angular 22 Angular Components 23 Expressions 24 Data Binding 25 Built-in Directives Part VI: Advanced Angular 26 Custom Directives 27 Events and Change Detection 28 Implementing Angular Services in Web Applications 29 Creating Your Own Custom Angular Services 30 Having Fun with Angular

Assemble the complete stack required to build a modern web app using MongoDB, Express, React, and Node. This book also covers many other complementary tools: React Router, GraphQL, React-Bootstrap, Babel, and Webpack. This new edition will use the latest version of React (React 16) and the latest React Router (React Router 4), which has a significantly different approach to routing compared to React Router 2 which was used in the first edition of the book. Though the primary focus of Pro MERN Stack is to equip you with all that is required to build a full-fledged web application, a large portion of the book will be devoted to React 16. The popular MEAN (MongoDB, Express, AngularJS, Node) stack introduced Single Page Apps (SPAs) and front-end Model-View-Controller (MVC) as new and efficient paradigms. Facebook's React is a technology that competes indirectly with AngularJS. It is not a full-fledged MVC framework. It is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces (in some sense the View part). Yet, it is possible to build a web app by replacing AngularJS with React – hence the term MERN stack What You Will LearnDiscover the features of React 16 to get the maximum out of this library Gain the basics of MongoDB, Express, and Node to build a web app Work with other libraries complementary to React, including React-Bootstrap, React Router, and GraphQL Use tools such as Babel and Webpack required to build JavaScript-based SPAs Tie all the components together to build a complete web app. Who This Book Is For Developers and architects who have prior experience in any web app stack other than the MERN stack will find the book useful to learn about this modern stack. Prior knowledge of JavaScript, HTML, and CSS is required.

By the end of this intro to MEAN stack development, youll know MongoDB, Express, AngularJS, and Node.js well enough to create your own production-grade, full-stack JavaScript web app.

Learn how to build dynamic web applications with Express, a key component of the Node/JavaScript development stack.
