New developers find it hard to decide on what to use and/or learn when starting a new full-stack project. When you start developing or creating an app, you need to understand the big picture first. A full stack app has a few components that are working together. These components include a database, storage, and an application programming interface. The API acts like the operator of the app. It does all of the work. Storage is optional depending on the requirements of the system you're building. The API is the server-side code that handles the request made by the client.
