Chapter 3. Writing a Blog Application with Node.js and AngularJS
In this chapter, we are going to build a blog application by using Node.js and AngularJS. Our system will support adding, editing, and removing articles, so there will be a control panel. The MongoDB or MySQL database will handle the storing of the information and the Express framework will be used as the site base. It will deliver the JavaScript, CSS, and the HTML to the end user, and will provide an API to access the database. We will use AngularJS to build the user interface and control the client-side logic in the administration page.
This chapter will cover the following topics:
- AngularJS fundamentals
- Choosing and initializing a database
- Implementing the client-side part of an application with AngularJS
