Overview

Node.js, MongoDB and Angular Web Development

The definitive guide to using the MEAN stack to build web applications

Node.js is a leading server-side programming environment, MongoDB is the most popular NoSQL database, and Angular is the leading framework for MVC-based front-end development. Together, they provide an easy-to-implement, fully integrated web development stack that allows web programmers to create high-performance sites and applications built completely in JavaScript, from server to client.

Updated for Angular 2, Angular 4, and subsequent versions, this new edition of Node.js, MongoDB and Angular Web Development shows you how to integrate these three technologies into complete working solutions. It begins with concise, crystal-clear tutorials on each technology and then quickly moves on to building common web applications.

You’ll learn how to use Node.js and MongoDB to build more scalable, high-performance sites, how to leverage Angular’s innovative MVC approach to structure more effective pages and applications, and how to use all three together to deliver outstanding next-generation Web solutions.

Implement a highly scalable and dynamic web server using Node.js and Express
Implement a MongoDB data store for your web applications
Access and interact with MongoDB from Node.js JavaScript code
Learn the basics of TypeScript
Define custom Angular directives that extend the HTML language
Build server-side web services in JavaScript
Implement client-side services that can interact with the Node.js web server
Build dynamic browser views that provide rich user interaction
Add authenticated user accounts and nested comment components to your web applications and pages
