Development

1. Understand MongoDB database
2. Create a basic Node project
3. Routing and HTML page rendering
4. Working with database
5. Page design with Twitter Bootstrap
6. API development

Git branching

• Final app is in master branch
• For each task, branch name with pattern DEV-Task Number, like DEV-1

Using Markdown files

• mongodb.md to understand DEV-1

• node_setup.md to understand DEV-2

• routing.md to understand DEV-3

• DEV-4 covers:

  • CRUD operation
  • templating with pug

  so, understand both database.md and pug.md

• It's time to refactor code, so read refactor.md

• bootstrap.md to understand DEV-5

• Go to refactor.md, More refactor as need api too

• api.md to understand DEV-6
