Quick demo application on the MEAN stack

What is Mean Baby?

Mean Baby is my first full foray into the MEAN stack (MongoDB, ExpressJS, AngularJS, NodeJS). I am working off of Write Modern Web Apps with the MEAN Stack by Jeff Dickey.

I deviate from the book a bit, especially when it comes to AngularJS since I already write my Angular apps a certain way.

Getting Started

npm install
gulp

Tests

I don't have tests in this project yet but this is what's planned:

Simply npm test in order to run the suite.

• Client unit tests: Karma and Jasmine
• Server unit tests: TBD
• E2E tests: NightwatchJS
