"The Systems and Networks Research Group (SynerG) Lab, CSE at IIT Bombay, is embarking on a project to develop its lab website. The project aims to create a user-friendly and visually appealing website that showcases the lab's research areas, ongoing projects, publications, and team members. The website will serve as an online platform for the lab's community, including researchers, students, and collaborators, to access information and resources related to the lab's work. Additionally, the website will feature a news and events section to keep visitors updated on the latest developments in the lab.
Overall, the project aims to create a professional and informative website that reflects the SynerG Lab's values and contributions to the research community.
The MEAN stack will be used to develop the SynerG Lab website, consisting of MongoDB, Express.js, Angular, and Node.js. Here is a breakdown of the work and learning involved in each component of the stack: 1. MongoDB: This NoSQL database stores data in JSON-like documents. The team will need to learn how to create and manage databases, collections, and documents and perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations using the MongoDB driver or Mongoose library. 2. Express.js: This web application framework for Node.js helps build web applications and APIs. The team will need to learn how to create routes, middleware, and controllers and handle requests and responses using Express.js. 3. Angular: This is a front-end framework for building single-page applications (SPAs). The team will need to learn how to create components, services, and modules and how to use Angular CLI to generate code and manage dependencies. 4. Node.js: A server-side platform for building web applications and APIs using JavaScript. The team will need to learn how to create and manage Node.js modules and use the Node.js runtime to execute JavaScript code on the server.
The project will allow the team to have a solid understanding of each component of the MEAN stack and how they work together to build a full-stack web application.
The team can leverage online resources such as tutorials and documentation to learn and work on the project. https://www.mongodb.com/languages/mean-stack-tutorial - This is a great place to start with.
