Current web applications are designed using a ‘stack’ of various technologies. A stack is a collection of frameworks and tools used to develop a software product. MEAN stack and MERN stack are two of the most popular and extremely powerful stacks used in web development. JavaScript provides an option to use both MEAN and MERN stack to develop web application by eliminating the need for switching the code. Both MEAN and MERN have a stellar combination of tools to help you build well-functioning software products. This ensures faster development of web applications and helps developers quickly get products to market as we only use a single language for frontend, backend rather than old ways of using different languages for frontend and backend and eventually leads to a huge cut in development costs and improves efficiency. Selection becomes intimidating for newcomers to pick the right stack for their applications. This paper aims at providing the various advantages and disadvantages of MEAN and MERN stacks, which enables the newcomers to pick appropriate right stack as applicable for developing a web application.
