MERN Stack Basics

There are numerous blogs about the MERN Stack. This blog will discuss very basic topics about it.

What is MERN Stack?

MERN Stack is a stack consisting of JavaScript frameworks and libraries. If you have enough knowledge about these topics, you can be called a full-stack developer.

Full Form of MERN:

• M - MongoDB
• E - Express.js
• R - React.js
• N - Node.js

MongoDB

MongoDB is a database where we can store the data of our website or application. It’s a NoSQL database, not a traditional SQL database.

Express.js

Express.js is a framework of Node.js. Using it, developers can work on the backend faster and more securely. It is a very popular backend framework.

React.js

React.js is the most popular JavaScript library. It helps to build fast, optimized, and lightweight single-page web applications. It’s very easy to use and developer-friendly. React.js also has a popular framework called Next.js that helps build SEO-friendly, folder-based routing web applications.

Node.js

Node.js is a JavaScript runtime. JavaScript has become very popular because of Node.js, as it makes it possible to run JavaScript on the server outside of the browser.

Conclusion

I hope this blog has given you a basic idea about the MERN Stack. There are also many other stacks like MEAN Stack and MEVN Stack that can help you become a skilled developer. Among them, the MERN Stack seems more convenient to me.
