{"product_id":"9781484226537","title":"Pro MERN Stack: Full Stack Web App Development with Mongo, Express, React, and Node","description":"Assemble the complete stack required to build a modern web app using React: MongoDB (a NoSQL database) and Express (a framework for web application servers), which runs on Node (JavaScript on the server side), complement React very nicely. This book will also cover many other tools that go into building a complete web application: React Router, React-Bootstrap, Redux, Babel, and webpack.\u003cbr\u003eThough the primary focus of \u003ci\u003ePro MERN Stack\u003c\/i\u003e is to equip you with all that is required to build a full-fledged web application, a large portion of the book will be devoted to React.\u003cbr\u003eThe popular MEAN (MongoDB, Express, AngularJS, Node) stack introduced Single Page Apps (SPAs) and front-end Model-View-Controller (MVC) as new and efficient paradigms. But it has its shortcomings such as lack of support for SEO friendly server-side rendering and being too prescriptive by being a framework.\u003cbr\u003eFacebook's React is a technology that competes indirectly with AngularJS. It is not a full-fledged MVC framework. It is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces (in some sense the View part). Yet, it is possible to build a web app by replacing AngularJS with React – hence the term MERN stack.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat You Will Learn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscover the details of React, the React Way, and how to get the maximum out of this library\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSee the basics of MongoDB, Express, and Node, enough to build a web app\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWork with other tools complementary to React, including React-Bootstrap and React Router\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse the tools required to build JavaScript based SPAs \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTie all the components together to build a complete web app.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWho This Book Is For\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDevelopers and architects who have prior experience in any web app stack other than the MERN stack will find the book useful to learn about this modern stack.
