NYC Fullstack Javascript Mastermind: CRUD! using Node & MongoDB

This month, we're focusing on CRUD functionality. Boil down all of our fancy features to their most essential actions and we'll find that they're one of the following four: Create, Read, Update, or Delete.

Together, collaboratively and within a small group, we're going to figure out how to set up a simple Node server & MongoDB database that can handle these four operations. We'll be using Express & Mongoose respectively to further simplify the process.

From this foundation, we can move forward into creating our own fullstack applications.

REMEMBER, this is a COLLABORATIVE event and I WONT BE TEACHING. Rather, WE'LL BE FIGURING IT OUT TOGETHER - this is how software engineering is done.

Here are some good resources to brush up on before attending:

** REMEMBER TO BRING PHOTO ID **

TO GET INTO WEWORK:

1. Scan your ID at the guest registration tablets at the front desk when they arrive at WeWork for the meetup event,
2. If your photo ID doesn't successfully scan, check in at the tablet as a guest of "Meetup Event".
