Best MEAN Stack Development books 2022 for beginners

I got a copy of this book from Greg after buying some of his other books earlier. I followed the steps as he described them in the book and things fell in place like he said. If you want to learn MEAN stack, this is a good place to start. While it is possible the interface of some of the web tools may change due to technology and desire to give the users the best experience, I enjoyed using this book and that is for someone who had no idea what MEAN stack meant before seeing the title page.

• AngularJS fundamentals like data binding, directives, controllers, routing, and services.
• Basics of Gulp.js and Grunt.js which are extremely useful for automating mundane, repetitive tasks. The book also covers JSHint, a lilting tool used to improve code quality.

In this book, we take you on a fun, hands-on and pragmatic journey to learning MERN stack development. You'll start building your first MERN stack app within minutes. Every chapter is written in a bite-sized manner and straight to the point as I don’t want to waste your time (and most certainly mine) on the content you don't need. In the end, you will have the skills to create a Movies review app and deploy it to the Internet.

This book is purposely broken down into short chapters where the development process of each chapter will centre on different essential topics. The book takes a practical hands-on approach to learn through practice. You learn best when you code along with the examples in the book.

What you will learn:

• Bootstrap a new MEAN stack web application using Node.js and Express
• Build a single-page application (SPA) with Angular and Angular-CLI
• Improve browser performance by optimizing your web application resources using Webpack
• Model complex JSON object relationships in MongoDB using Mongoose
• Debug all the layers of a MEAN stack application, including working with source maps
• Build Restful APIs using Express.js and JSON Web Token (JWT) for user authentication
• Use automated testing to improve the reliability and quality of your MEAN stack application

Traditionally, web applications have been architected so that the back-end houses all the front-end code. This has resulted in heavy projects that are difficult to manage and scale. This book will explain a new way to write web applications by treating the front-end as if it were a third-party (such as a mobile client).

This book, written by a practising MEAN developer, will take a holistic approach to use the MEAN JavaScript platform for creating modern web applications and layout how to use the MEAN (Mongo, Express, AngularJS, and Node.js) set of tools to create a web application, from installation and setup of the tools to debugging and deploying your app. After an introduction to how web development is changing and the advantages of using the MEAN stack, the author jumps into an introduction to each tool and then dives into using the complete JavaScript-based application stack to build, test, and deploy apps.
