About this book

Learn how to develop a complete and robust Node, express.js and MongoDB-based web application and mobile application backend quickly using KeystoneJS. You’ll learn how KeystoneJS makes complicated things simple, without limiting the power or flexibility of node.js or the frameworks it is built on.

Beginning KeystoneJS shows you how to build database-driven websites, applications, and APIs, all built upon Express, the defacto web server for Node.js that uses MongoDB as its storage backend.

  • See how easy it is to extend KeystoneJS
  • Understand the custom types and fields provided out of the box
  • Write clean markup and create templates using Swig
  • Use the powerful editing options in the framework's responsive dashboard
