This is a framework that provides a nice starting point for Mongo, Angular, Epress and Node based projects.
It is designed to be a starting point for the development of MEAN based web apps.
### Prerequisites
Mongo - Download and Install mongo - make sure it's running (deafualt port for the connection is 27017)
Express - Comes by the npm install
Angular - Is provide by the node and through the process...
Node - Install node.js

#### Install
In the root directory run
npm install
to get all of the required node modules needed by MEAN.

### Modules
Mean is built in a modular fashion and will provide a larger eco-system implemented as node modules.
# MEAN Stack

MEAN is a boilerplate that provides a nice starting point for MongoDB, Node.js, Express, and AngularJS based applications.
It is designed to give you quick and organized way to start developing of MEAN based web apps with usefull modules like mongoose and passport prebundled and configured.
We mainly try to take care of the connection points between existing popular frameworks and solve common integration problems.

## Prerequisites
* Node.js - Download and Install [Node.js](http://www.nodejs.org/).
* MongoDB - Download and Install [MongoDB](http://www.mongodb.org/) - Make sure it's running on the default port(27017).

## Additional Packages
* Express - Defined as npm module in the [Package.json](package.json) file.
* Mongoose - Defined as npm module in the [Package.json](package.json) file.
* Passport - Defined as npm module in the [Package.json](package.json) file.
* AngularJS - Prebundled in the [public](public/) folder.
* Twitter Bootstrap - Prebundled in the [public](public/) folder.

## Configuration
See the [config](config/) folder and espically the [config.js](config/config.js) file.

## Quick Start

The quickest way to get started with MEAN is to clone the project and utilize it like this:

Install dependencies:

$ npm install

Start the server:

$ node server

## The Future
We are currently working on a extendable module system to make this project more like a framework with support for common web development requirements.
