GraPHP vs MEAN: What are the differences?
Developers describe GraPHP as "A PHP graph DB web framework *". The goal of this project is to build a lightweight web framework with a graph DB abstraction. It should be very easy to create the graph schema with no knowledge of of how the data is stored. Also, the schema should be incredibly flexible so you should never need migrations when adding new models (nodes), connections (edges), or data that lives in nodes. On the other hand, *MEAN** is detailed as "A Simple, Scalable and Easy starting point for full stack javascript web development". MEAN (Mongo, Express, Angular, Node) is a boilerplate that provides a nice starting point for MongoDB, Node.js, Express, and AngularJS based applications. It is designed to give you a quick and organized way to start developing MEAN based web apps with useful modules like Mongoose and Passport pre-bundled and configured.
GraPHP and MEAN can be primarily classified as "Frameworks (Full Stack)" tools.
GraPHP and MEAN are both open source tools. MEAN with 11.8K GitHub stars and 3.57K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than GraPHP with 135 GitHub stars and 5 GitHub forks.
