Firstly, let’s talk about MEAN – This is an Angular based platform developed by Google. MEAN is most popularly known for Google Ads and Google Analytics.
So, what are the advantages of MEAN? MEAN only needs one type of syntax for the whole project. You also have access to a lot of support due to it being developed by Google. It’s especially an advantage for the development side as there’s lots of Boltons, Libraries and a wide community helping each other.
It’s now written in Typescript rather than JavaScript which is more progressive and more suitable for front end development.
However, as it’s an MVC ( Model-View-Controller) there’s a lot of bloatware – it can be too much for such a small application and cause it to be slower. Also, it’s a steeper learning curve. There is lots more to learn about MEAN due to its complexity. In addition, there has been some performance issues, the DOM (document object model) rendering can be slow as its heavy.
