In our application, we won’t be using Angular.js, as we are not building an HTML user interface. The MEAN stack is a modern replacement for the LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Python) stack that became the popular way for building web applications in the late 1990s.

N = Node.js: a server-side JavaScript interpreter.

A = Angular.js: a robust framework for creating HTML5 and JavaScript-rich web applications.

E = Express.js: a lightweight web application framework.

M = MongoDB/Mongoose.js: the popular database, and an elegant ODM for node.js.

The MEAN stack can be summarized as follows: So, if you have no previous experience using MongoDB, JavaScript or building a REST API, don’t worry - we will cover these topics with enough detail to get you past the simplistic examples one tends to find online, including authentication, structuring code in multiple files, and writing test cases. No prior experience with these technologies is assumed and developers of all skill levels should benefit from this blog series.

In the second part, we will create tests that validate the behavior of our application and then describe how to set-up and run the application.

In this first part, we will describe the basic mechanics of our application and undertake data modeling. These technologies use a uniform language - JavaScript - providing performance gains in the software and productivity gains for developers. In this 2-part blog series, you will learn how to use MongoDB, Mongoose Object Data Mapping (ODM) with Express.js and Node.js.
