What are the benefits of the MEAN Stack Development

by Gary Ferguson Technical Writer | Blogger

With the evolving technologies and development methodologies, there was a need for having a tech stack that was coordinated, syncronised, and had up to date frontend framework and library. This where MEAN stack comes in place. MEAN, MongoDB ExpressJS AngularJS NodeJS, all these frameworks have the capabilities of developing impressive and elegant applications.


MEAN stack is regarded to be suitable irrespective of the size of the business. Since this stack uses JavaScript for frontend and backend it makes it easy for developers to work with and aids in the web development process. With all the framework being up to date and open-source many A-list companies are looking further into. Likewise, there are MEAN stack development companies offers these services.


Let's discuss the benefits of MEAN development :  


  1. Flexibility: The best part of the MEAN tech stack is that uses javascript language throughout. This makes it easy for the developers to code as there's no use of different languages. For example, you start coding in node and switch to angular with changing the code much. This makes the code unified throughout and any java developer can pick up the code and start working on it. The use of MongoDB adds to the flexibility owing to its ability to have layers for automatic data sharing.

  2. Unified language: Since MEAN uses javascript through out the stack, developer needs to know about only one language for the entire development. Thereby reducing the development time and efforts. Also, this eliminates the need of having a separate developers for development, thereby saving on the hiring cost.  

  3. Open source and cost-effective: All technologies in this stack are open source and have a massive amount of resources available. The open-source nature of the tech stack allows developers to cut down on development effort by using the publicly available libraries and code repositories. 

  4. Real-time data updation: This is where MEAN really shines through, the dynamism that it imparts to Single Page Application. Gone are those days of having static pages, in today's time, having interactive dynamic website pr web application is the need of time to attract your target clientele. What MEAN does here is it allows you to update a specific section of the web page without having to reload the entire page.

  5. Reduced development time: Need to rapidly prototype the application for demonstration? Well, that is possible with MEAN as it offers a huge base of pre-coded modules to help to build up from scratch. Also MEAN offers an automated testing feature that lets developers immediately know about a broken feature in the application.

  6. Switching between Client and Server: Since the MEAN stack uses the single language at the client and the server end. Developers can seamlessly switch back and forth between front and back end without breaking sweat due difference in the language being used. Using NodeJS developers have the ability to deploy applications directly to the server as well.


In short , when in need of dynamic and versatile web develoment MEAN stack is an apt choice. With constant updates being made to individual technologies in the stack, it is set to improve and overcome any shortcomings it has. And with the growing popularity of Nodejs amongst big brands like Netflix, Paypal, Uber backs up the potential of the Stack. With this potential many web development company are offering the MEAN stack developement services
