It would be really nice if we see a full blown app tutorial based on the MEAN stack

Treehouse does indeed a great job covering the basics on many topics , but if you tree to write a real world application that is certainly not enough :)

It would be nice to see a series of workshops creating a real world application using Nodejs-Expressjs-MongoDb-Angularjs (aka the MEAN stack) , from backend to front end design, creating web api... etc...

Basically a series of workshops that would build upon each other. First the backend.. then the api to communicate, then the database.. then the front end.. then the styling... etc. So as the student leans something in the courses will see it used in a real world example. Maybe later you want to introduce a new technology to the app, so another workshop builds upon the previous ones.. ok.. i think i made my point :)

It could have its own "brand" like the Treehouse show.....

I couldnt agree more! Either a new track or new course would be great.

My suggestion would be to have users go through the current courses + one for mongodb beginners then have new courses that build an actual web application using only JavaScript. I'd love to see more 'intermediate' development content on Treehouse.

Andrew Chalkley - any thoughts? pls make this happen!
