Do you ever feel this way? I think it affects a lot of people in our technical community. What if the time investment was just a few minutes, you could learn the basics of the "new thing", and have something running? Just a little taste of success to at least say we've tried it? Sometimes that is all it takes to get started. Let's give this a go with Docker and see if it can take us less than 5 minutes to find success. Here is what...

Building MEAN Apps with Cosmos DB - Part 6: POST, PUT and DELETE with Cosmos DB I've released a new videos series that shows how to build MEAN apps using Cosmos DB. Each video in the series will be a couple of minutes and show how each part of the application works. This next video shows how to code the POST, PUT, and DELETE APIs to connect to the MongoDB database with Azure Cosmos DB, using Mongoose. This video series explores: Exploring the Angular, Express, Node, and Cosmos DB app Building the Node.js and Express.js app, along with the Angular CLI Angular and Express APIs Creating and Deploying Cosmos DB Querying Cosmos DB POST, PUT, DELETE Coming Soon...
