Build fast robust and maintainable modern full-stack web applications using MongoDB Express Angular and Node.js.Key FeaturesBuild highly scalable asynchronous and event-driven APIs Develop a user authentication system with MEANBuild a full-fledged application using the MEAN stackBook DescriptionMongoDB Express Angular and Node.js Fundamentals is a practical guide to the tried-and-true production-ready MEAN stack with tips and best practices. 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 learnUnderstand the MEAN architectureCreate RESTful APIs to complete CRUD tasksBuild a blogging application with basic featuresDescribe best practices to secure node applicationsImplement authentication and authorizationCreating simple animations using AngularPerform unit testing on Angular applicationsWho this book is forIf you are a beginner or intermediate frontend developer who wants to become full-stack JavaScript developer this book is ideal for you.
