MERN vs MEVN—What’s the difference and when should MERN be preferred?

Explains the distinction between the MERN stack (React) and MEVN stack (Vue), and when choosing MERN makes sense.

• MERN features React as the frontend JS library, while MEVN replaces it with VueJS. Both use MongoDB, Express.js, and Node.js. • MERN is preferred when teams want widespread ReactStack adoption, rich ecosystem, job availability, and React’s component approach. Use MEVN if lightweight codebase and beginner-friendliness are priorities. Tags: mern-stack, mevn-stack, react, vue, javascript, full-stack
