Favorite Technologies <\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of my favorite tech stacks is Node.js, npm, MongoDB, and Express. This stack is primarily used for web development and I found it relatively easy to understand compared to other technologies like Django or Microsofts .NET tech stack. When I first started to use this stack in the winter term of 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Node.js<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Node.js has an asynchronous event-driven JavaScript runtime that allows a web developer to create an application that is scalable and can handle connections that is scalable. Node.js uses an event loop instead of a library and so when Node.js enters the loop, Node.js will exit when all the callbacks have been performed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
npm<\/p>\n\n\n\n
npm is a javascript package manager for Node.js. Packages can be installed using the terminal\/shell and these packages are downloaded and used for your Node.js projects. The packages that are installed in your project have a version that can be specified, just in case you need to have a particular version to avoid “breaking” your projects due to the version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MongoDB<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MongoDB is a database that uses documents instead of tables to persist data in your project. Instead of storing data using rows and columns, the MongoDB database uses BSON which is a binary representation of your database’s data. The data is displayed in JSON format which is serialized and deserialized through the web applications source code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Express<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Express is an open-source web application framework that is used with Node.js. It is written in javascript and is used to build single or multiple-page web applications and APIs. Express can be used to build simple servers to complex MVC architectures for your application. Express is for faster server-side development, middleware (database access or security), page routing, templating (EJS, Handlebars, Pug, etc.), and debugging. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are many other technologies that can be used with this stack. But, I’m still exploring what I can do with this current stack, and I’m working on adding React, Vue, and Angular to my web development repertoire. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
