MEAN STACK DEVELOPMENT
MEAN is a javascript based software. MEAN is used to build web applications. The name was coined by Valeri Karpov. It is an acronym for Mongo DB, Express, Angular(6) and Node.js. Companies using MEAN are Google, Netflix, Uber, PayPal, LinkedIn, etc.
Why MEAN stack?
It is tough to learn stack development. Mean stack is comparatively easier to learn mainly because it runs entirely on JAVA script. Most of the startups these days prefer JAVA script. It is used for mobile app development and Real-time, multi-user interactivity. Using Mean is very simple. It is quicker than other scripts of its kind. As it is based only on JAVA, it has a very wide range of applications. In addition to large companies, small companies and start-ups use Node.js is used to build robust products. Products made with node.js can handle high traffic. Node.js is the most highly used framework in the world.
Skills required:
- Must know HTML to some extent.
- Optimizing skills
- Knowledge of database management
- Understanding architecture design programming templates.
- Basic Java programming

- git - used for source code management in software development, can also be used for keeping track of any changes in files. It comes pre-installed in Linux and OSX machines.
- js - it is a cross-platform javascript runtime environment used to run code outside the browser.
- npm - it is the default package manager for the js runtime environment.

Conclusion
MEAN is the most widely used Java-based development platform used for web development by most of the companies in the world because of its ease of use, ability to build robust products and real-time multiuser interaction on mobile platforms. MEAN also outperforms a lot of other programming languages like python, ruby, etc. in terms of development cost and development flexibility because of a single programming language, the language being Java the most widely used programming language in the world makes it easier for companies to hire programmers easily. Most companies in the world use node.js even if not MEAN stack for web development thus making it the most widely used software for development of a simple multitasking page or a set of complex web pages like a social networking apps.
