Write Modern Web Apps with the MEAN Stack: Mongo, Express, AngularJS, and Node.js: Learn by Video

The MEAN stack (Mongo, Express, AngularJS, and Node.js) offers a new path to writing web applications by treating the front-end as if it were a third-party (such as a mobile client). This video by full-stack developer Jeff Dickey takes a holistic approach to learning the MEAN JavaScript platform and shows how to build, test, and deploy apps. The video is wrapped in a unique interface that allows you to jump to any topic and also bookmark individual sections for later review. The unique "Watch and Work" mode shrinks the video into a small window to allow you to work alongside in the software. Project files used in the lessons are included on the disc so you can practice what you've learned, and interactive review questions help reinforce freshly gained knowledge.
