MEAN Stack is a set of technologies that you can use to make a full-stack application.
- M stands for MongoDB (No SQL database)
- E stands for Express (a framework on top of Node)
- A stands for Angular, a front end framework
- N stands for Node, a backend framework
Two main advantages of MEAN stack are its scalability and the fact that it uses JavaScript only. Since they are all JavaScript, a good MEAN stack developer is required to have extensive JS knowledge.
The primary functions of the MEAN stack technologies are:
- Angular JS: Accept requests and display results to end-user
- NodeJS: Handle Client and Server Requests
- Express JS: Make requests to Database and return a response
- MongoDB: Store and retrieve data.
As you can see, the correct name for this stack of technologies should be ANEM because it captures its stack order, but MEAN is more memorable.
To make it completely clear, a MEAN Stack Developer is a developer who only uses a certain stack of technologies to create a Full Stack Application.
More and more companies chose MEAN Stack Developers as their preferred choice of employees because they can make a full-stack application, and often their average salary is lower than that of a full stack developer. Let’s talk about the responsibilities, requirements, and salaries of a mean stack developer.
