MernStack

This is a template for a MERN stack I made from scratch (MongoDB, Express, ReactJS, NodeJS). I created this stack overnight to overcome re-writing a big boilerplate every new project.

1. MongoDB

2. Express

3. ReactJS

4. NodeJS

Additional Tools

1. Axios - for async data fetching,

2. Babel - for writing ES6 and JSX.

3. Webpack - for bundling all JS to a single Bundle with the babel-loader.

4. Node MongoDB Native - An ORM tool to establish connection between the Node application and my MongoDB Database.

5. Nodemon - for automatic reloading.

Usage

1. clone this repository

  git clone https://github.com/TalArbatov/MernStack.git

2. Install dependencies

  npm install

3. build client

  npm run client

4. run development server (localhost:3000)

  npm server

Future

In the future I am planning to create a CLI to initialize an install the MERN stack, maybe adding a CLI option feature to update and manage the stack technologies dynamically.
