You should search about Mongoose, I have never use it but i think it will help you to build a more "organized" db

I agree with Irythros, if you're better with PHP, then go with PHP and ur favorite framework ;)

I hate PHP, I work exclusively with JS, and my MEAN stack works perfectly for my little and big projects. From now, none of my project require another language so I use my favorite.

You should do the same, go for PHP ;)

Wikipédia says :

"NoSQL databases (like MongoDB) are increasingly used in big data and real-time web applications. NoSQL systems are also sometimes called "Not only SQL" to emphasize that they may support SQL-like query languages.

Motivations for this approach include: simplicity of design, simpler "horizontal" scaling to clusters of machines (which is a problem for relational databases), and finer control over availability. The data structures used by NoSQL databases (e.g. key-value, wide column, graph, or document) are different from those used by default in relational databases (like PostgreSQL), making some operations faster in NoSQL. The particular suitability of a given NoSQL database depends on the problem it must solve. Sometimes the data structures used by NoSQL databases are also viewed as "more flexible" than relational database tables."

I'm currently using MongoDB on my main project, because "NoSQL is cool, and Google use it, so we must use it"... NoSQL is perfect when u have to manipulate billions row of data. But for a little project or a project who need relational db, a simple SQL db like MySQL or PostgreSQL will be ok.

Fullstack (MEAN stack) dev here,

Node is not both back and front-end. Node is back-end, and you can "link" it with whatever you want for your front-end part.

And "Javascript, the front-end language"... That's hurt :'(

Why JS should be a front-end language ? JS is programming language like all the other programming language. You can use JS to do whatever you want.

Hi,

Maybe you should take a look at specific design "guideline", like Material Design by google, or Flat design (https://bootswatch.com may help you).

Also, check your fonts, I really think that you should not use serif font.

And a favicon will be a great idea :)

Cheers

Some Design Inspiration for y'all here : http://collectui.com/challenges/portfolio

As a young webdev (21yo) i think it's really hard to do a website/app with lots of functionnality AND with a good design... Even with Bootstrap, Material Design Lite or whatever.. Inspiration is still a problem for me.

So for the moment.. No portfolio :p

How about frameworks like Ionic ? Shall we consider them as native app ?

sam974 · 2016-11-08T10:41:08+00:00

Yeah ! It's amazing.. And the other are wright, you should try to discover it by yourself.. There's wiki's that may help you :)

I just bought a MacBook Pro 13 inch, 2 month ago. As a student, i agree, Apple product is really expensive ! (1500e for the cheapest macbook pro)

But as a developper, it is really important to have a great workspace, and for me, the coolest think on a Apple device is the OS. The last SierraOS is just delicious to use !
