Frequently Asked Questions

Angular provides strong typing with TypeScript, dependency injection, comprehensive testing tools, and a structured architecture that scales well for large teams. Combined with MongoDB's flexibility and Node.js performance, MEAN is ideal for complex business applications.

The backend (MongoDB, Express, Node.js) remains identical. Only the frontend changes from Angular to React. Server Compass supports both stacks, so you can run them side-by-side during migration.

Angular apps are heavier than React, so we recommend 2GB+ RAM for production. The Node.js backend and MongoDB can share a single VPS. Server Compass optimizes container resources automatically.

Angular remains the top choice for enterprise applications, especially in finance and healthcare. While React has more overall usage, Angular's opinionated structure and Google backing make it preferred for large-scale corporate projects.
