The MEAN software stack is a popular set of technologies for creating websites. It consists of MongoDB, Express.js, AngularJS, and Node.js. Each of these items provides vital features and time-saving tools for website development. Although another popular set of technologies known as the LAMP stack may be some developers’ preferred stack, this article will outline precisely why you will find more success with MEAN stack development in the web development industry. MongoDB The first letter in MEAN stands for MongoDB. You will use this for your website’s databases. You may store anything in the database from basic user credentials to shared information like the comments on a forum. MongoDB uses the file format JSON, which will be familiar and intuitive to you if you have ever used a JavasScript object. With helpful learning resources and solid documentation, MongoDB is an excellent choice for today’s web developers both new and old. In contrast, the database system in the LAMP stack is considered outdated by some and also much stricter, making MongoDB the ideal choice. Express.js Express.js plays a vital role in the MEAN stack, as it works hand-in-hand with Node.js to communicate with the server, establish routes that determine what happens at each URL, and ultimately create a networked application using JavaScript. It is an easy-to-use back-end framework that allows you as a MEAN full stack developer to follow best practices in RESTful routing or simply create a web application quickly. Using Express.js will provide you with a useful skill beyond only the MEAN stack, as Express.js can work with databases other than MongoDB, as well as a wide variety of template engines including EJS and Jade. AngularJS As aMEAN full stack developer, you will be exposed to many front-end frameworks. However, AngularJS stands out because it has simple architecture, it supports unit testing, and it provides a fast development environment. Additionally, AngularJS boasts a large community of fellow developers to help you with problems and share your work when it comes to MEAN stack development and the front-end UI. Node.js As mentioned earlier, Node.js is what allows the web developer to use JavaScript on the back-end of the website. It is an event-driven runtime environment that also has countless quality, independent packages available for download using something known as npm. In fact, Express.js is one of the most popular packages in Node.js’ package manager, npm. Other popular packages include Passport for user authentication, as well as body-parser for managing form input. Instead of learning an entirely new language and becoming confused with basic syntax rules, using Node.js allows you to become an expert in a single programming language. If you are new to the back-end, you will have an easier time picking up the basics. Eventually, you can boast a high level of knowledge about the subtle details of JavaScript, because your entire software stack relies on it. Additional Benefits of the MEAN Stack The MEAN Stack Is Intuitive The MEAN stacks provides everything necessary to create a competitive web application, yet it is less complicated compared to the LAMP stack. Although it is possible to rely on strict schemas and format data very specifically, as required in the LAMP stack’s MySQL, it is not necessary in the MEAN stack. In fact, MongoDB allows the developer to easily add new information to some, but not all, of the items in a JSON file. This is in contrast to MySQL, where a developer simply must provide information to every item, even if the value is “undefined”, or absent. The LAMP Stack Is Outdated Another common criticism of the LAMP stack is that it can be considered outdated by some. PHP has fallen under heavy criticism for its overly complex practices and lack of industry experts. In contrast, the MEAN stack has become one of the industry standard stacks for small startups, rapid development, and successful, profitable corporations. As a developer, you will likely face all kinds of clients, including some who rely on older technology. Although PHP may be used in some cases, working with the MEAN stack is ultimately a better choice for any developer. ...read more

The term “DevOps” first appeared on the scene about a decade ago. Now we all know that DevOps describes a continuous professional collaboration between IT workers and software developers. In this article, we plan on describing some of the possible future paths for this blossoming technology field. Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Many companies that have implemented DevOps into their business practices have received numerous benefits. In the future, data science teams may use DevOps development practices due to the prevalence of custom application development. When data scientists use DevOps, they can redo production models while testing previous models that they already deployed. The trend will only get more popular as custom application development teams and data scientists come together to maintain different applications. Automation Is Here To Stay Automation can allow businesses to do their work faster than it would be on the cloud. The presence of automation is especially evident among hybrid environments in the cloud. While many CEOs like the idea of the hybrid cloud, most companies can’t make the technology do exactly what it wants. In the past few years, automation not only changes IT operations for the better, but it also makes theDevOps developmentprocess a whole lot simpler. You will also see a competition of sorts between vendor supported options against developers working on their own open source products. In 10 Years, DevOps Will Look Extremely Different For one thing, containers will become the bread and butter of the execution of applications. It could even become the standard bearer of both “Dev” and “Ops”. Additional technological changes could include functions that can operate without servers. Along with microservices, the structure of the application will become more flexible in its operations. However, some downsides from these changes can include the technology becoming a bit more difficult to manage over time. To deal with these upcoming shifts, a change will need to get made in the workflows and tools of DevOps. But once container-native and cloud applications become more available, better tools will also appear. With these changes, developers will no longer be required to write code on their computers or install required tools. Look for integrated development environments (IDEs) that are based on the web to come through SaaS. But this last shift might come through a restricted enterprise cloud system. The Tools of DevOps That We Will Need As developers and IT professionals look for a way to increase the infrastructures of IT, they create new capabilities for this technology, cut down costs, and avoid cloud vendor issues. These workers need a traffic strategy that takes care of the health of its infrastructure throughout the data centers and the experiences of end users. Now that a multi-cloud global environment is coming to pass, we need a new way to create more applications that are native to the cloud. These teams constantly work to deploy services that close the chasm between the idea and the actual delivery. What DevOps does well is to connect developers and IT professionals with end users. This access helps DevOps team to stay away from products that don’t really meet their most important needs. People who work in the DevOps industry have the ability to see flaws in their technology and can correct any mistakes quickly. What sets apart the DevOps teams from professionals working in other tech fields is that DevOps workers collaborate with people all across the stakeholder path. Despite all of the rapid changes that are taking place in the DevOps industry, a few sticking points are slowing things down. These issues include some of the following: Continuing deployment Fully automated testing and QA Touchless automation for software When you take the technology of DevOps and put it in a multi-cloud environment, teams can pursue innovation in a productive and supportive space. New platforms and tools coming in the near future will deal with many of the mundane deployment details. These changes, along with automation, AI, and other upcoming shifts, will make DevOps an exciting field to follow. ...read more

With the usage of apps increasing across the world, app developers need to consider a number of factors in order to build apps that people will love using. A well-designed app gives the user a good experience, which means that he or she will be more likely to keep it in his or her phone for a long time or recommend it to a friend. The following are some of the things that developers need to follow to ensure that a smartphone user will continue keeping the apps that they develop: Security Recent cases of security breaches have created awareness to consumers on the need to enhance the security of their information. Most clients, therefore, are cautious when it comes to installing apps on their phones. Some users will even review the measures employed by the developers to protect users’ data from illegal access. As amobile app developer, therefore, it is essential to ensure that the security of the system and that of user data has been addressed exhaustively. Developers should design and build their apps using the latest secure methods of data and systems security. Mobile app developers, for instance, can use techniques such as encryption to ensure the integrity of their clients’ data. The Platform Mobile app developers should ensure that they conduct extensive research to know the platform that their potential clients use. For example, if a developer is developing an app targeting American mobile phone holders, he or she should focus mainly on the iOS platform since a majority of Americans use iPhones. On the other hand, if a developer is developing an app for the Asian or African markets where most of the clients are on the Android platform, they should mainly focus on the Android platform. To be more successful, however, it is advisable that mobile app development be done for both iOS and Android platforms. That way, users from both the leading platforms can use the app. Target Audience Identifying and defining your target audience is another vital factor to follow if you want to ensure the success of your app. Mobile app developers should understand their target audiences in order to develop products that meet the specific needs of the audience. Developers should embark in some form of research and interactions with their potential clients to know them and learn what they are looking for. App developers can also make their products better by partnering with research institutions that can help them with the kind of information they need to understand their clients better. Knowing the target audience can help a developer to make informed choices on product specifications such as the language to use and the app’s level of simplicity. Accepting Payments Mobile app developmenthas taken center stage in helping people to make lives easier and better. Most of the apps out there either work to make shopping or buying goods easier. Developers, therefore, have to integrate payment methods in their apps to make them more secure and more accessible for the clients to make a payment. App developers should know if their app will be used to buy or make a purchase. After knowing this, they can integrate the payment options in the design of the app to make the user experience much better. Design The design of the app is also important because it might determine the success or failure of a project. Designing your app intelligently helps to improve the user experience, which means that the user is more likely to keep the app since he or she will enjoy using it. The best way to ensure the design is appealing to users is by ensuring the interface is easy to use. All the essential information and buttons that the user needs should be easily identifiable. The developer should ensure that they get rid of distractions and make everything focused. The information provided in the app should also flow to keep the reader entertained and well informed. ...read more
