Know how FargoWiZ MERN Stack Experts will Help you Grow your e-commerce Business

Every e-commerce business needs an online presence- whether it be in the form of a mobile application or a website. This works in the favor of your consumers as well as your own business. Consumers can shop from anywhere, anytime; whilst exploring a wide range of brands, available at their fingertips. Your company does not have to rent or buy a physical brick and mortar store to conduct business, thereby saving on a ton of business capital. Additionally, you get to target consumers globally- thus increasing your potential customer base and therefore your profits.

To sustain your e-commerce venture and avoid any glitches while it thrives, you need to opt for technologies that are robust and can stand the test of increasing website traffic, while providing optimum performance. The MERN stack is one such trusted collection of technologies that can help your brand reach its intended business goal.

This article will take you through the technologies included in the MERN stack, its advantages and reasons to opt for FargoWiz as your e- commerce development company.

What is the MERN Stack?

The MERN stack is a full-stack suite of technologies that can be used to develop the front-end, back-end as well as the database of the application. The MERN stack comprises of:

MongoDB- This is an open-sourced, document oriented, NoSQL database. The data is stored in the form of documents that can be queried using the JSON language. MongoDB is known for its feature of “sharding” where the database can scale horizontally depending on the data to be stored. This robust architecture of MongoDB is what appeals to developers for mobile and web application development.

Express.JS- This open-source backend web application framework enables developers to create fast, scalable, and robust applications. Known for its minimalist architecture, Express is used for the creation of the REST API that can retrieve data via HTTP requests. Additionally, Express offers multiple features to customize the application and make the development process easier and faster through the concept of code reusability that enables developers to write code once and use it wherever necessary within the application.

React.JS- This open-source, frontend JavaScript library was released by Facebook and is used for creating interactive user interfaces for mobile and web applications.React supports code reusability as well. React is known for accelerating the performance and speed of websites, where animations and any other transitions used within the UI can load seamlessly on the user side.

Node.JS- This cross-platform and open-sourced back-end JS runtime environment works on Chrome’s V8 engine and runs JS code outside the web browser. Node.js helps developers generate dynamic content for web pages, collate form data, modify data stored in the database and manage server files through a non-blocking I/O feature.

Advantages of the MERN Stack

• The complete stack is open-sourced- which means that all the languages included with the MERN stack are freely available to be downloaded and used.
• MongoDB is a robust database which means if the traffic on your e-commerce website increases, the database can scale to accommodate this load
• MongoDB is a schema free database, the documents do not need to be structured to be indexed and queried
• Code reusability supported in Express and React saves on development time as the code written once can be re-used multiple times within the application
• React enables the UI to render quickly on screen as it uses the concept of Virtual Document Object Model (DOM) which is a copy of the real DOM. Any changes to be made in the UI is first made to the VDOM. This is then synced with the main DOM. This is done so that the main DOM does not have to be refreshed each time a change is made thereby slowing down the production time.
• Node.js uses a single-threaded, non-blocking I/O model that performs operations asynchronously. This enables maximum CPU utilization.
• The learning curve involved for working with the MERN stack is very small. As all the languages are based on JavaScript, any developer who knows JS can easily use this stack. Plus, there is tremendous backing from the MERN community in case developers run into bugs while developing the application.
• MERN provides developers its own set of testing tools that can be used to seamlessly perform a QA before delivering the end product.
