MEAN/MERN Stack

Get the Best MEAN & MERN Stack Development

Full-stack development is becoming increasingly important in the world of web development. A full-stack development solution provides ideal solutions for front-end, back-end, testing, and mobile applications. The demand for a full-stack developer is increasing dramatically in today’s environment.

A full-stack developer may handle a project’s whole design structure. There are other full-stack development frameworks available, such as MEAN stack and MERN stack. Let us now look at the differences between them.

MEAN Stack

MEAN is an abbreviation that stands for MongoDB, ExpressJS, AngularJS, Node.js. This framework provides quick and easy development of web and mobile applications. The main components of MEAN are as follows

MongoDB

It is used to store the data of back-end applications as JSON files.

ExpressJS

It is a back-end application that runs on top of Node.js.

AngularJS

It is the front-end framework that runs the code in the browser.

NodeJS

It provides runtime system for JavaScript on the back-end web application.

One of the prominent advantages of using MEAN stack is that the whole code is in JavaScript. So, it is easy for beginners to explore and learn. Also, its unified offerings can significantly reduce development time and cost. The MEAN stack contains various supporting libraries and reusable modules which deliver a scalable minimum viable product.

MERN Stack

MERN is an abbreviation which stands for MongoDB, ExpressJS, ReactJS, Node.js. This framework also provides quick and easy development of web and mobile applications using java as its main component. Main components of MERN are as follows.

MongoDB

It is a document-oriented No-SQL data store used to store back-end applications.

ExpressJS

It is a layered framework built on top of NodeJS that takes care of the website’s back-end functionality and structure.

ReactJS

It is a library that facilitates creating the user interface components of single-page web applications.

NodeJS

It is a runtime environment capable of running JavaScript on a machine
