For this, we will use the example of the list management application built in Chapter 5, Managing a List with Vue.js. But here, the server used will be a Node.js server, and the list items will be stored in the MongoDB database. This will allow them to be redisplayed later, if necessary.
In the end, we will obtain a client-server application entirely made in JavaScript (both on the client side and on the server side).

- Inserting a new element in the list
- Displaying list elements
- Modifying an element in the list
- Removing an element from the...
