Build a Task Management App using Javascript

Question

I am looking to build a Order Management and Task Management App for my company. I am a beginner in Programming and know only Javascript (Can manage with HTML and CSS ) . This app would also require to connect with a database. Is it possible to build it only using Javascript (without the use of any other languages like PHP etc) and is it advisable. Is there any other more feasible solution.

If Javascript will suffice, a few more queries in the same line

1. What database would be the best to use ?
2. Would using Angular JS help ?
3. How do I search and use if theres a similar project in Github that runs only on Javascript ?

Answer 1

You have to Choose

• Nodejs Server (Javascript)
• AngularJS Client (Javascript )
• Mysql Backend

They are More Flexible with friendly Solutions

Answer 2

You could build and host your app on something like https://firebase.google.com/ - build the entire thing in eg polymer and let google host it, that way you'd be building the thing entirely in JS, no other language required

Answer 3

1. suggest you read more about the MEAN stack, it's a very popular stack that let you build the whole stack (DB, Server side logic, Client Side logic) with Javascript alone.

in short:

• MongoDB, a NoSQL database
• Express.js, a web application framework that runs on Node.js
• Angular.js, a JavaScript MVC framework that runs in browser JavaScript engines
• Node.js, an execution environment for event-driven server-side and networking applications

2. using the angular JS is optional in my opinion, it is required if you want to make it to feel as single page app.

3. try this on github, an example for MEAN stack.
